Bug ID: 442912
Summary: Button "Change Wallpaper" doesn't work because a NASA
certificate expired
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.22.4
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Quick Settings
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: rybak....@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Picture of the Day for NASA's APOD (https://apod.nasa.gov/) has got an expired
certificate, which breaks Changing Wallpaper in System Settings, if you have
APOD enabled as the wallpaper.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have Wallpaper set to Picture of the Day with NASA APOD selected
2. Wait until NASA certificate expires -- upgrade the root certificates (Ubuntu
package certificates-ca) so that the NASA's certificate is no longer accepted.
3. Wain until you receive an error message about certificate (responsible for
apod.nasa.gov) expiring. (See screenshots) // I assume this is because "Picture
of the Day" wallpaper mode periodically checks the website for updates. Every
five minutes, I guess?
4. Open System Settings
5. Click on "Change Wallpaper..." (See video recording)
OBSERVED RESULT
At Step 5 __nothing__ happens.
EXPECTED RESULT
At Step 5 the GUI for changing wallpapers is opened in the "System Settings"
window.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
* The suspicion that the problem is with the NASA certificate has only occurred
because *just before* I've started getting this error, I upgraded using
`aptitude` and the package "ca-certificates" caught my eye in the list of
upgraded packages and I manually checked its changelog in aptitude (hotkey
"C").
** The package's changelog is available at
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/c/ca-certificates/ca-certificates_20210119ubuntu0.21.04.1/changelog
** The change of that upgrade is the latest entry in the changelog:
> [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
> * mozilla/blacklist.txt: blacklist expired "DST Root CA X3".

* I checked that the website "apod.nasa.gov" corresponds to the host
"antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov"
$ ping apod.nasa.gov | head -1
