OK.
In that case, how does this seem as an SUA text?
====================
The ca-certificates update described in SUA 182-1 removed some
certificates issued by Symantec (under various brand names).
Unfortunately, this removal led to a number of reported regressions.
The affected certificates have therefore been reintroduced.
If you have already installed the package from SUA 182-1, and need to
use the affected certificates, you may need to manually enable them by
running "dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates" as root.
====================
