Description:
Class 1 and Class 3 PKI keys from CAcert.org, to trust SSL certificates signed
by either key of the CAcert Certificate Authority (CA).

Notes : Now that the main ca-bundle.crt is shipped in its own "ca-certificates"
packages, I thought it might be a good idea to be able to easily trust
additional well known CAs by installing optional packages. The case of
CAcert.org comes up frequently, so answering "just run yum install
ca-cacert.org" from now on might be useful.
If some day the CAcert.org certificates get included in the main
ca-certificates packages, then it'll just be a matter of retiring this package
and adding a few "Obsoletes:" to ca-certificates.
For people who only want to trust the Class 3 certificate, it is possible to
only install the "ca-cacert.org-class3" sub-package.
