>Description:
security/p11-kit is currently built to depend on security/mozilla-rootcerts and use its cacert.pem file as trust anchors.
But mozilla-rootcerts cacert.pem is intended only for _TLS_ trust anchors. p11-kit doesn't do TLS as far as I know. It's not clear it makes sense to bake any trust anchors into it.
>How-To-Repeat:
code inspection
>Fix:
1. Determine whether my assessment that we shouldn't bake any trust anchors in is right.
2. If so, nix the DEPENDS+=mozilla-rootcerts and the MESON_ARGS+=-Dtrust_paths=... settings.
