Package: ca-cacert Version: 2019.0411-2 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: proposed-removal
Hi, CAcert is pretty much made obsolete by LetsEncrypt, and unlike LetsEncrypt, it has never been part of the Mozilla truststore. Furthermore, the ca-cacert package has become virtually useless with the expiry of the shipped intermediate certificate [1], and not even CAcert seems to bother enough to link the newly generated certificate from their official website [2]. Therefore, I believe it is time to acknowledge the facts and remove the package from Debian altogether.
