I didn't get any notification about the reassignment. Please copy me next time you try this. The To was also very unhelpful. </rant> > Sure, it could be ca-certificates. I'm reassigning accordingly.

So ssl-cert actually stores data in /etc/ssl/certs. ca-certificates should not remove anything that's in /etc/ssl/certs unless you tell it to in ca-certificates.conf (by prefixing the cert filename with !), by virtue of update-ca-certificates. It does, however, purge dangling symbolic links in certain circumstances. But those shouldn't have been symlinks after all. The maintainer scripts only do fancy editing on ca-certificates.conf and call update-ca-certificates. Unless I'm provided with more information (i.e. a reproducable testcase) or am pointed to something that ca-certificates clearly does wrong it's probably not a valid RC bug...
