My first Google hit was a Tolstoyesque treatise from "catchpoint.com".
Related to our earlier discussion about length versus comprehensibility, it
really is remarkable how deluded IT people are about the layperson who
perceives security as a tedious and probabalistically unnnecessary precaution.
Doctors and lawyers do not hold forth about the viscissitudes of their daily
work.  Perhaps that is why they are paid more.

I then googled "ubuntu ca-certificates update" and got what I needed.

I shall add crow to my grocery list for having mistaken this for a bug.  I'll
close this issue presently.
