the openssl pkg puts its certs directory in /usr/share/ssl/certs If an admin is putting certs in place they would then have to place or symlink them into /usr/share/ssl/certs Since an ssl key is more like a config file it should probably be in /etc/ssl/certs. Additionally it makes backups more simple b/c you can just grab /etc and get all the critical files in one place. It doesn't make sense for a directory where a user should put files for the system to be in /usr which could be mounted ro. Thanks
not gonna happen too much stuff would break on upgrade
