Package: dgit
Version: 0.23
Severity: important

dgit needs to access various things from the ftpmaster server.  These
things are provided via HTTP over TLS.

Unfortunately dgit's HTTP TLS clients (wget and perl) can no longer be
persuaded to expect specifically and exactly the right server's EE
certificate.

In the meantime I am going to make it use the CA set provided by
ca-certificates.  This is very wrong, though, because it means that
anyone exploiting a failure of the CA cabal can cause dgit to see
wrong answers.

Ian.
