.SH NAME
mk-ca-bundle \- convert mozilla's certdata.txt to PEM format
.SH SYNOPSIS
mk-ca-bundle [bilnpqstuv]
mk-ca-bundle [options]
.I [outputfile]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The mk-ca-bundle tool downloads the certdata.txt file from Mozilla's source
tree over HTTP, then parses certdata.txt and extracts certificates
into PEM format. By default, only CA root certificates trusted to issue SSL
server authentication certificates are extracted. These are then processed with
the OpenSSL commandline tool to produce the final ca-bundle file.

The default \fIoutputfile\fP name is \fBca-bundle.crt\fP. By setting it to '-'
(a single dash) you will get the output sent to STDOUT instead of a file.

if the HTTPS transfer fails. This overrides that decision (and opens for
man-in-the-middle attacks).
