Hi,

yes, the issue was a line-end encoding (Microsoft style) which
Chromebook didn't like.

We are now stripping MS encodings during cert upload and the resulting
installers work despite the bitnoise.

If another institution is experiencing the problem, they may need to
re-upload the CA to trigger the new behaviour.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
