Is there some issue with gnutls in F21? As far as I understand it should work as expected with the certificates removed.
It works as expected in the sense that GnuTLS can no longer handle major web sites like Amazon and Kickstarter, this being the natural consequence of removing a root before the certificates issued by it have expired....
Are you sure that this is the case with the current package? My F21 can no longer connect to network to test, but gnutls in it should reconstruct the chain similarly to what nss does (not very similarly to be precise but the end result should be the same). If it is not the case please report it as bug and I'll check it out.
