This is probably a libgnutls bug, but since I haven't pinned it down
I'm filing it here.  Known problem?

I recall similar problems when I also disabled all CAs on my machine long time ago. I suspect some software may be checking the return code from the CA loading function, and will treat loading of 0 certificates as an error. Please try to track down the code that triggers the error message to test this theory.

I believe it isn't that simple. I think the code that returns the error in this case can be found here:

   https://github.com/bagder/curl/blob/master/lib/gtls.c#L377

... and it clearly checks for a negative return value for it to be an error.

Of course I might be wrong.
