I'm looking at the following files:
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/ca-bundle.crt
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/cacert.pem
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/certs
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/certs.pem
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/cybertrust.pem
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/google.pem
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/myBundle.crt
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/server.pem
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/statEth.pem
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/etc/ca-bundle.crt

At least the following files:
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/certs
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/etc/ca-bundle.crt
/usr/lib/R/site-library/RCurl/CurlSSL/certs.pem

Are mostly a duplicate of /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt

I'm not sure what the others are used for.
