Not even that. The origin c_rehash is not aware of blacklists, only CRLs. So
the idea behind a blacklist is that you exclude specific certs from installing.
This means that if a cert exists in the blackist and in the source, the hash
link is never created (or removed) is /etc/ssl/certs. They must be skipped.
When the link is established, OpenSSL assumes that you trust that entity. If
you don't want to work with blacklists, use CRL. I don't see a reason to copy
with the original name. What benefit should that give?
