Public bug reported:
Hi
It would be helpful if the man page for update-ca-certificates explicit
specifies that the certificate MUST have a .crt extension otherwise they won't
be included by update-ca-certificates.
You could change the following man page description:
from:
"It reads the file /etc/ca-certificates.conf. Each line gives a pathname of a
CA certificate under /usr/share/ca-certificates that should be trusted.
Lines that begin with "#" are comment lines and thus ignored. Lines that begin
with "!" are deselected, causing the deactivation of the CA certificate in
question."
