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. + +The PEM format this scripts uses for output makes the result readily available +for use by just about all OpenSSL or GnuTLS powered applications, such as +curl, wget and more. +.SH OPTIONS +The following options are supported: +.IP -b +backup an existing version of \fIoutputfilename\fP +.IP -f +force rebuild even if certdata.txt is current (Added in version 1.17) +.IP -i +print version info about used modules +.IP -l +print license info about certdata.txt +.IP -n +no download of certdata.txt (to use existing) +.IP -q +be really quiet (no progress output at all) +.IP -t +include plain text listing of certificates +.IP -u +unlink (remove) certdata.txt after processing +.IP -v +be verbose and print out processed CAs +.SH EXIT STATUS +Returns 0 on success. Returns 1 if it fails to download data. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR curl (1) +.SH HISTORY +\fBmk-ca-bundle\fP is a command line tool that is shipped as part of every +curl and libcurl release (see http://curl.haxx.se/). It was originally based +on the parse-certs script written by Roland Krikava and was later much +improved by Guenter Knauf.
