I'm only the bearer of this patch with is written by
David McIlwraith, member of the cacert community
This patch is also published for arch linux

http://pastebin.com/Fcn6PUjR

This patch should make it possible to use the right
CaCert-Certificate (Root 3) with Iceweasel.
First I tried mysef to reopen
bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630232
which contains the announcement of the new root3 certificate.

David McIlwraith himself told me: "95_add_spi+cacert_ca_certs.patch is part
of the Debian src package as well as Arch; they are shared as far as I can
tell, so someone needs to open a new Debian bug and submit this proposed
patch. it removes the md5withRSAsignature cert and replaces it with the
sha256withRSAsignature one."

I hope this information is enough.

Kind regards


Mechtilde
