Gentoo does use the Mozilla database, and there wasn't a check for StartCom Certification Authority. But Gentoo installs NSS as a separate package (Gentoo is special, Wladimir ;) so these weren't the cert settings that ship with SeaMonkey, I guess. There was no checkbox by it in Firefox either. I've got nss-3.12.3-r1, which isn't the latest from Mozilla but which is well after StartCom certs were added. (The -r1 is a Gentoo build revision.) If it's not fixed when Gentoo stabilizes their 3.12.4, I'll try to remember to file a bug with them. -- »Q« /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign \ / against html e-mail X <http://asciiribbon.org/> / \ _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
