So for the avoidance of doubt, every independent distro has its own
custom ca-certificates package with no shared history. I know Debian,
Fedora, and openSUSE all have their own completely separate upstreams.
Looking at what Fedora does is probably a good idea indeed, just keep in
mind it has no shared history with Debian's package. I took a quick look
at openSUSE's package and it looks like it has good p11-kit integration
as well. Arch uses Fedora; not sure about other independent distros.
They all use Mozilla's certificates, but Mozilla doesn't release a
package in a way that's directly usable by distros.

Debian's ca-certificates implements certificate blacklisting by putting
a ! character at the start of a line in /etc/ca-certificates.conf (which
doesn't exist on other distros). Once a certificate is removed, it stays
removed, see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=743339
which was never fixed.
