The patch is a bit crude.  We shouldn=E2=80=99t hard-code the location of t=
he
cert bundle.  Instead we should run getenv to get the location from one
of the common environment variables and only fall back to
=E2=80=9C/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt=E2=80=9D if it isn=E2=80=99t se=
t.

Would you like to change the patch to accomplish this?  Please present
it here before pushing it.

Another thing: I found that my browser tab freezes when a video rewinds
to loop.  I have gst-libav installed (in addition to all the
=E2=80=9Cgst-plugins-*=E2=80=9D packages), so that may be responsible here.
