Details

Currently, firefox flatpak doesn't plug itself with the host p11-kit trust store, which can have additional CA (and so forth).

Fedora already fixed it in their own flatpak ( https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/firefox/pull-request/34#request_diff ).

+1 on this please. Currently a blocker for deploying flatpak based firefox on our hosts.

Could you please test that the host p11-kit trust store works with the upstream binary - ie. non-flatpak ?

Flags: needinfo?(fred)

I just tested with latest upstream binary and it works if we remove libnssckbi.so from firefox tarball to force it to use system one located in /usr/lib64.

This is also the default behavior of Firefox packaged as RPM (and probably Deb) by several distributions (Fedora / openSUSE).

You may also test if removing libnssckb.so from firefox flatpak makes it work (the runtime contains own libnssckb.so symlinked to p11kit-trust).
