-# The Debian ca-certificates package merely takes the CA database as it exists
-# in the nss package and repackages it for use by openssl.
-#
-# The issue with using the compiled debs directly is two fold:
-# - they do not update frequently enough for us to rely on them
-# - they pull the CA database from nss tip of tree rather than the release
-#
-# So we take the Debian source tools and combine them with the latest nss
-# release to produce (largely) the same end result.  The difference is that
-# now we know our cert database is kept in sync with nss and, if need be,
-# can be sync with nss tip of tree more frequently to respond to bugs.
-
-# When triaging bugs from users, here's some handy tips:
-# - To see what cert is hitting errors, use openssl:
-#   openssl s_client -port 443 -CApath /etc/ssl/certs/ -host $HOSTNAME
-#   Focus on the errors written to stderr.
-#
-# - Look at the upstream log as to why certs were added/removed:
-#   https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nss/log/tip/lib/ckfw/builtins/certdata.txt
-#
