Comment:

 Any news on this bug? I was unable to fix this problem by
 uninstalling/disabling the AddTrust External CA Root. So now I have HTTPS
 everywhere installed, but it certainly won't be able to update since it
 tries to use HTTPS on the EFF site for that, and this connection is
 rejected because of the invalid certificate.

 Why is the EFF using a certificate that is not valid in firefox? This
 doesn't make any sense to me. "error: sec_error_unknown_issuer" -> what
 does this error even mean, and how can it be fixed?
