When I open uzbl-browser, i get this warning:

My apologies if this is actually a bug with uzbl. If so, please re-assign. Thanks!

Comment 1 Andrew Engelbrecht 2016-04-24 00:46:39 UTC
One possible cause of this issue is that I mistakenly did a 'dnf install ca-certificates-2015' then a 'dnf update'. Something must have broken there if I am the only one experiencing this bug.

Comment 2 Milan Crha 2016-04-25 09:26:18 UTC
Thanks for a bug report. The uzbl package has in its example config this
   /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
file reference, but
   $ dnf provides /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
returns no packages, thus it makes sense you've no hit on that file, unless you install it from some 3rd-party repository. I wouldn't be surprised if that warning was shown even earlier.

As the uzbl browser uses webkitgtk3, I would focus that way first. That is, could you check what was updated (/var/log/dng.log* files), particularly focus on libsoup, uzbl, webkitgtk3 and samba packages.

Comment 3 Dan Winship 2016-04-25 13:58:17 UTC
libsoup doesn't specify any specific CA files itself

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-25 07:27:31 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2016-12-20 20:07:18 UTC
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

I reproduced this on Fedora25

I'm currently getting a very similar error trying to setup RescueTime, I suppose they do something similar to what uzbl-browser does. :(

Comment 8 aurelien 2017-06-06 09:19:37 UTC
:/opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts# cp /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt .
cp: cannot stat '/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt': No such file or directory
