Yes, that is what we have had to do.

The real fix is to get the gnutls people to support certificate

when it has so many issues. (Licencing issues are low on my list of
reasons.)

All or just the intermediate certificates?

Another issue with gnutls, no intermediate file (or directory) of
certificates.
