[Pkg-exim4-users] tls_verify_certificates = system

hi all,

I tried to use the new option to use the system standard CA bundle (new 
in 4.86), for certificate verification.

I tried overriding:

	MAIN_TLS_VERIFY_CERTIFICATES = system

as per spec Ch.14.

But when I did this, all certificate verification stopped working. When 
I reverted to the pkg default (appended), all started working again.

I'm running on sid, so my GNU TLS is 3.3.17, exim 4.86-3 (heavy).


Presumably I'm doing something wrong, but I don't see it. Any ideas, please?

thanks much indeed.

best regards,
calum.


.ifndef MAIN_TLS_VERIFY_CERTIFICATES
MAIN_TLS_VERIFY_CERTIFICATES = ${if 
exists{/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt}\
                                     {/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt}\
                                     {/dev/null}}
.endif
tls_verify_certificates = MAIN_TLS_VERIFY_CERTIFICATES
