Odd - no security issues?

done
Comment 3 Michael Palimaka (kensington) gentoo-dev 2008-08-20 11:09:46 UTC
Is there any plan to use the new flag '--with-system-ssl-certs' or is this unnecessary?
Comment 4 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-08-20 16:29:38 UTC
The problem is that our current app-misc/ca-certificates does not contain the Microsoft cert authority that is needed for MSN, so we can't use it for pidgin.
