I hit this bug too with firefox 94.0.1-1 / Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS (Focal
Fossa)
when trying to import my certificate from /etc/ssl/certs/toto.crt, that
has previously been installed with update-ca-certificates, "nothing
happens" as you describe
when opening the Browser Console, and repeating the action, I get an
error:
message: "Component returned failure code: 0x80520012
(NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) [nsIX509CertDB.importCertsFromFile]"
we can see what happens by looking in the snap:
snap run --shell firefox
cat /etc/ssl/certs/toto.crt
: No such file or directory
this is a symlink that points to a folder under /usr/local/share/ca-
certificates which is not accessible by the snap.
Fix it: copy the file under $HOME where it can be imported... hth
