Many distributions are considering[1] whether to remove CAcert, and Mozilla closed the RFE[2] for CAcert in 2008, which was opened in 2003. Concerns were expressed about CAcert's code quality[3], and their audit appears to be stalled. In the past, it appears that Ubuntu disabled[4] CAcert, but this is no longer the case. It may be wise to do so again.
