Hi Dmitry,
ca-cacert just fell out of testing because of this issue.

Reason for this test suite failure is likely that certtool stopped to
accept the MD5 hashing algorithm.
The man page says:
--verify-allow-broken
Allow broken algorithms, such as MD5 for verification.
This can be combined with --p7-verify, --verify or
--verify-chain.
This could be fixed to change
certtool --verify --load-ca-certificate root.crt --infile root.crt
to
certtool --verify --verify-allow-broken --load-ca-certificate root.crt
--infile root.crt
As far as I see understand that seems to be only the self-signature of
root.crt (which AFAICT should be neglectable) while the (AFAICT
relevant) signature on class3.crt uses SHA256 which is ok.
Regards, Axel
