CA-Certificates-Updater

What is the vdt-update-certs script?

The vdt-update-certs script is designed to help keep your CA Certificates up to date. It runs out of cron, and will check for a new certificates package once per day. This mechanism is compatible with Pacman, and you can later use 'pacman update' to update your CA-Certificates package.

Installing and using

Use Pacman to install the CA-Certificates-Updater package. At install time, a prompt will ask if you want to automatically update your certificates. After install, you can run $VDT_LOCATION/vdt/setup/configure_ca_cert_updater --server [y,n] to turn the cron job on or off.
