There is a bug in Debian (jessie) that causes NSS-based browsers such as Chrome to prefer SHA-1 certs over SHA-2. In Chrome this leads to reporting the site as insecure.

@drazisil thanks for following up on this!

Everyone: although this issue isn't our fault, I suggest that we keep it open until it's fixed so that anyone else who encounters it can reference this issue.

I've subscribed to that Debian bug and when it closes, I'll ping @drazisil to re-test. Until then, I'm going to tag this as Needs More Info.

@drazisil thanks a ton for updating this! I subscribed to the bug, but I must've confused the close email for something else because I don't recall seeing it. Thanks again!
