It appears that the URL that we are using for certs is not being updated.
What we have now is:
{{{
certhost='http://mxr.mozilla.org' &&
certdir='/mozilla/source/security/nss/lib/ckfw/builtins' &&
url="$certhost$certdir/certdata.txt?raw=1"
}}}
It has been suggested that we use the file out of the version control
repository, but that changes periodically. We need to do something like:
{{{
certhost='https://hg.mozilla.org'
certdir='releases/mozilla-
release/file/default/security/nss/lib/ckfw/builtins'
wget $certhost/$certdir/certdata.txt
mv certdata.txt certdata.html
certtext=$(grep raw-file certdata.html|sed -r 's/.*="(.*)".*/\1/ )
wget $certhost/$certtext
}}}
That should get the text format of the file. The only problem is that we
need to download a 5M html file just to get one line that points to a 1.5M
text file.
