I see that you have already uploaded the package:

May I suggest that you ask ftp-masters to REJECT it?



Yep indeed. Maybe a wrapper could be tought for packages that have some optional dep on that?


I would simply patch Mozilla::CA to have SSL_ca_file() returning the Debian directory /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla instead of the cacert.pem file. That would avoid to patch third-parties code that eventually use explicitly the modules. This is compatible with the IO::Socket::SSL module.

Does it make sense?
