Bug Description

New install of 15.10, (Gnome). I can access sites fine from other machines on the LAN, but my new install tells me that all connections are untrusted. I have also installed chromium browser and I have the same problem. For both, if I allow the exception, I can get through fine. (Though not to google.com which doesn't allow security exceptions, apparently.) I have checked /etc/ssl/certs, and all looks fine. (There is, at least, a long list of certs there.)

So, this is not a firefox or chromium issue. It's something deeper.

Because apport can't get to the browser, I'm not sure how to send system data.

I'm not sure if openssl would be the relevant package, but just in case ... Attached is an apprort file collected against openssl from the effected system. (ubuntu-bug would not let me upload it from a system from which I can access launchpad.)

This turned out to be a problem with the clock! (Along with my unfamiliarity with Gnome.)

Changed in ca-certificates (Ubuntu):
