Back in bug 629558 an option got introduced to make the intermediate certificate store memory-only. But setting the security.nocertdb preference to true does not get the patches for armagadd-on 2.0 applied.

Now to keep the properties we get from setting security.nocertdb, we moved forward to just disable the pref, add the new cert, and re-enable it, which kind of worked but it seems after a restart and sufficient amount of time passing so that a re-check is triggered the extensions get disabled again.

Thus, we redo a -build2 for Tor Browser with the pref disabled.

However, it would be nice to get the security.nocertdb preference working again as intended.
