I confirm that using GnuTLS 3.3.9-2.fc21 on Fedora 21 testing, 
with ca-certificates-2014.2.1-1.3.fc21,
and ca-legacy set to disabled,
the command
  gnutls-cli -p443 www.amazon.com
reports a trusted certificate.

That's great, thanks Nikos for fixing it in the newer GnuTLS on Fedora
21!

(Just for the record, using gnutls 3.1.27 on Fedora 20, and a scratch
build of the new ca-certificates package, and set to disabled, the
certificate is still rejected, which I understand is because of the
older GnuTLS version.)

If anyone can still see problems with GnuTLS and the above configuration
(disable) on Fedora 21, please let us know which site has the issue.

This means, the remaining package that needs fixing is OpenSSL.

Thanks
Kai
