Bug Description

Whenever there is a crash report to send, I get log messages like these in /var/log/syslog:

Feb 19 18:33:53 spark whoopsie[1069]: Parsing /var/crash/_usr_bin_blueman-manager.1000.crash.
Feb 19 18:33:53 spark whoopsie[1069]: Uploading /var/crash/_usr_bin_blueman-manager.1000.crash.
Feb 19 18:33:53 spark whoopsie[1069]: Sent; server replied with: Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with given CA certificates
Feb 19 18:33:53 spark whoopsie[1069]: Response code: 0
Feb 19 18:33:53 spark whoopsie[1069]: Could not upload; processing later (/var/crash/_usr_bin_blueman-manager.1000.crash).

I have the following certificate packages installed:

zooko@spark ~ $ dpkg --list | grep -i certifica
ii ca-certificates 20130906ubuntu2 all Common CA certificates
ii ca-certificates-java 20130815ubuntu1 all Common CA certificates (JKS keystore)

I don't actually understand if it is really an Ubuntu server that is attempting to authenticate my client, or if the "server" referred to in that error message is actually a local service running on my laptop.

Oh, looks like this may have had something to do with recent updates to nss and related packages that I just received after I posted this bug report:
