Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

This is similiar to #399857:

When I try to open a SSL website (https://...), and the website's certificate is signed by an unknown CA instead of the usual warning I get the following error:

XML-Verarbeitungsfehler: Nicht definierte Entität
Adresse: jar:file:///usr/lib/firefox-3.5.3/chrome/browser.jar!/content/browser/certerror/aboutCertError.xhtml
Zeile Nr. 241, Spalte 34: <p id="introContentP1">&certerror.introPara1;</p>
