Why does ca-certificates include only mozzila certificates?

I was missing spi-inc certificate and figured out that ca-certificates package deliberately builds only mozilla subdir from upstream source (which is http://packages.qa.debian.org/c/ca-certificates.html).
As of pkgver = 20140325 (https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … beaae68df7), upstream Makefile refers by default to 2 subdirs: mozilla, and spi-inc.org.
Does anybody know why we're specific about including only mozilla certificates?

Right, I somehow (wrongly) assumed we're fine with what upstream maintains as the whole package.
Digging deeper, this shift in attitude is quiet recent though:
2014-03-24 only ship mozilla certs; cleanup old install message

    Automatically cc myself is not checked.  I did find out that if you have multiple email address that all of them need to be associated with "My Contact" tab.  Thanks

  • Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting to PDF?

    Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting in PDF? I can seee the TOC in iBooks Author but when I want to see what it looks like in a regular PDF, the TOC does not show up.

    Strange question you ask here. Not sure why that is relevant to "why" IBA won't publish a table of contents in a PDF.
    But since eyou asked, it's simple, I want to author some books in IBA and also see what they look like - completed - in PDF. Again, any suggestions as to a work around so I don't have to cut and paste back into Pages?

    why does my apple tv only show two icons?

    Ditto, my ATV3 went on the blink last night. It suddenly lost internet connection and therefore resulting in the loss of AirPlay.
    Reset and Restarted the device and my wireless box (an Airport Extreme). The ATV3 can see my home network but it cannot connect to the internet via it.
    My Macs and ipads can so the internet is working.
    Seems that there is an issue with ATV3?!

    Why does my mac book only freeze at my office and no where else?

    can you be more specific as to when it freezes?  Have you been able to determine a particular pattern as to why it freezes.  Your question is too vague for anyone that does not have access to your office with your mac in the room.

  • Why Why does the voice dictation only work some applications

    Why does the voice command on my iPhone only work in certain applications

    In the end, it's up to the app's developer to add or not those features. And also why there is a ratings and review system for each submission to the App Store. If you think an app should include support for some specific iOS technology (such as Voiceover), let the developer know.
    And of course, there's another filter. Apple wants all iPhone apps to have a uniform operations look and feel. So they publish a guide to iOS Human Interface Guidelines, and expect developers to follow. They give some leeway, but if an app grossly violates them, it does not make it into the store. Here's a link to the Guidelines: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual /MobileHIG/Introduction/Introduction.html

  • Why does Number's include the date and cell title when creating a formula!!

    When typing in a formula, if the 1st column has a date in it then, regardless of where on that row I begin the formula, the date and title of the column appears in the equation rather than the cell designations. What I get is this:
    ='# Shares Bought' 'Apr 4, 2009'*Share ∆ 'Apr 4, 2009'
    All I wanted was =D2*H2, but instead I got all of that. If I manually erase everything and change it to =D2*H2 it reverts back as it was as shown above.
    I tried the same thing without the date in the first column and this eliminated the problem. However, I need the date, so why does Number's insist on doing this?
    Thanks.

    And now, the envelope please. The winner is Jerry Green for his spot-on answer!
    Hey, Jerry!
    I really appreciate your response to this silly little problem. I've used a few spreads in my time, but I've never seen this before. Guess I should have checked the Prefs but didn't. Anyway, I'm good to go now.
    This still, I don't think, explains why the row without the date configured correctly. Does it??
    Again, thanks for your perfect answer.

  • Why does Do Not Disturb only work when the iPhone is locked?

    I've been wanting for awhile now a way to easily turn off all notification alerts and incoming calls while keeping cellular data and wi-fi on so I can use my phone in peace without gimping my wireless connections, and even though iOS 6 as a whole seems awesome to me, I'm disappointed Do Not Disturb only works when the iPhone is locked.

    Was just wondering if other people felt the same way I do and start a discussion about it so maybe that with more people talking about it, Apple would pay attention to it more. People complaining about how calls and alerts were lighting up their screen at night seems to be some inspiration to why Apple added Do Not Disturb in the first place. Didn't know I was doing anything in violation of the Terms of Use so sorry about that.

  • HT3847 Why does "organize my library" only manage some Movies, and how to control which it does?

    Ok, so I'm totally frustrated.  I've long used the "let iTunes manage my library" option, but for some reason all of my recently added moves are in subfolders of \Movies, but all of my older movies are in the root of "Movies", so like the below:
    iTunes
      \Movies\
        \A Knights' Tale\A Knight's Tale.mp4
        \Underworld\Underworld.mp4
        21.mp4
        Aliens.mp4
        .. rest of my movies
    I prefer to have all of my movies in \Movies without the subdirectories.  If I turn off "Organize" it let's me move the dozen it's put in subfolders, but I really WANT it to manage my music in subfolders.  Problem is, as soon as I turn "Organize" back on, it moves my Movies again, but ONLY THE DOZEN it had in folders before?  Why isn't it at least consistent??  Is there some way to control this behavior?  Argh.

    Not only that, but I can't find the file anymore.
    as long as you don't see an +exclamation mark+ next to those tune, the tune is still on your HD. to make iTunes show you where it is, right-click (or ctrl-click ) on the tune and select +show in finder+
    Does anyone know how to fix this
    you can try this and see if it suits your needs: go iTunes > preferences > advanced and deselect +keep iTunes media folder organized+
    and where I can find all these missing file? I hope I haven't just lost my Jimi Hendrix discography.
    unlikely, see above
    what i said above is based on iTunes version 9. you didn't mention what version you're on ?

  • Why does my ipod touch only give me sound and no video when connected to tv

    whenever I connect my ipod touch to my flat screen to play a movies or watch a music video saved on the ipod touch ... I get the audio .... sometimes it will show the video but most times its does not ... simply put ... Why? and how do i fix?

    cor-el,
    Thank you for the help. I followed your instructions and it worked in Safe Mode. I went through my Add-ons and disabled them one at a time until I found the culprit.
    Additional question: If I set up Sync and run it for my desktop and laptop, then turn my add-on back on, will it continue to interfere? Or only when it tries to re-sync? I'm asking because I love the add-on that causing the trouble and will have a hard time letting it go.
    Thanks again for the help.

    Inherited an iMac that had had many many users.  The thing was pretty junked up and slow, so I decided to have a brand new OS installed. So basically it is  a new computer.   However, when I try to download previous purchases in iTunes I can only find the last two albums I bought.  It does not even recognoze that I have purchased other music.  When I was sharing the computer with others I had no trouble downloading all of my purchases.  So, where are the rest of my purchased albums?
