Pardon me, I have the same problem, but I seem to be missing something about the solution.
My application is in Ruby on Rails, with a gem called "OmniAuth" doing the OAuth work. It was working just fine before this change, automatically fetching my certificates from /etc/ssl/certs directory. What should I do to adjust to the new CA? Thanks in advance.
