Micah, thanks for stepping in. No worry, I am perfectly calm. And I am not trying to blame anyone for the work they do, it's much appreciated. I am certainly aware that Mozilla is a huge project and that there is always a big possibility of regressions slipping through (which in fact is why I pin TB and FF until a time when I can accept a breakage should it occur).
What I do not appreciate is the lack of sense of responsibility for one's own actions that seemed to be apparent here - especially if from a paid developer. The comment I quoted half an hour ago is unacceptable IMHO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066585 Title: [Regression] Cacert CA certified certificate no longer recognized Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: There is a fairly serious regression from thunderbird 15.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 to 1:16.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1. The later version apparently no longer recognizes the Cacert CA whereas the former does. I use a self-signed cert for my mail-server with a key that is trusted by Cacert.org. This stopped working today with said update. Upon connection to the mail server I'm being shown an "Add security exception"-dialog saying that the certificicate isn't trusted. I have run TB in safe-mode and it was the same. I've also tried adding the Cacert root CA explicitly as trusted but TB told me that the certificate is already in the pool (not really a surprise as the old version of TB relied on it quite happily). I've now downgraded back to the previous version and used pinning to prevent an upgrade. Oh, and by the way, feel free to ignore this ticket as I believe in "Datensparsamkeit" instead of routinely uploading oodles of private information via apport. This ticket contains all the information you need, if not, feel free to ask for clarification. I hope Ubuntu is still about quality and not about being required to use certain tools to report an issue (while being ignored in the bug tracker nonetheless ;)) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/1066585/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
