[Fink-devel] Re: [Fink-users] fink update-all fails.
Still a long-time bug in the packaging of db42, which needs to be fixed at some point, if anyone feels like figuring out why it happens by debugging the dependency resolver. -Ben On Apr 30, 2004, at 9:21 AM, Alexander K.

There's only one set of root certificates-- or at least there should be, else the whole system of trust chains would fall apart. I.e Debian gets a certificate from a organization which certifies that the holders of the Debian private key is Debian, and that certifying organization gets a certificate from someone else who is in turn certifed by another, until the root is found. Theoretically, someone could publish an additional root certificate, and if a user were naive enough to trust that root certificate, malicious individuals could pass themselves off as various entities deserving as trust. So, copyrighting and licensing a set of "root certificates" would seem to be counterproductive. Nevertheless, these particular ssl certificates are distributed along with copyrightable, and thus licensable source code. If fink were to distribute this additional code, it would be bound by the BSD license, as that's what I believe modssl uses. On the other hand, if fink were to distribute a the ca-roots-*deb only, it could distribute it without being bound by a license. But if fink did distribute such a binary package, without mentioning mod_ssl, then users would not have any particular reason to trust the integrity of those root certificates.
