Public bug reported: When building container images which require TLS certificates, particularly under podman it is desirable to mount the hosts /etc/ssl/certs directory into the container either during runtime or during build.
This mount should normally be done read-only to prevent conflicting with the host. However, if the container then has an apt package install requested which depends on ca-certificates, the installation will fail because the post-install script fails due to update-ca-certificates being unable to write to /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt on the read-only mount. This then blocks dependent package installs. It should be possible to request skipping this process so ca- certificates can be satisfied without needing to execute the ca- certificates update immediately after installation. ** Affects: ca-certificates (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ca-certificates in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2076308 Title: Allow requesting not running update-ca-certificates during install Status in ca-certificates package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When building container images which require TLS certificates, particularly under podman it is desirable to mount the hosts /etc/ssl/certs directory into the container either during runtime or during build.
