Product BZs are already raised by me earlier around the same topic:

2124052 – As usage of katello-ca-consumer rpm has been deprecated, the capsule-certs-generate command should suggest alternate approach during SSL cert installation\renewal
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2124052

2185634 – [RFE] Alternate method of katello-ca-cosumer to populate SSL certs on client systems
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2185634


Since we don't have any other options present yet, Can we do this on the client systems, instead of installing katello-ca-consumer rpm or it has some downsides ?

Comment 5 Malhar Jivrajani 2023-08-22 08:28:13 UTC 
Even though, we have deprecated the katello-ca-consumer rpm package, the mentioned way (above PR) is not addressing the issue technically. Based on the conversation on the above PR, we have mutually agreed to have an optimal solution in the future to better address the issue/requirement.

Thank you for the feedback.
