Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert/issues/28

I follow the document steps.
The first step: mkcert -install

Created a new local CA at "/Users/**/Library/Application Support/mkcert" 💥
Password: ******

But it's wrong.
Error INFO:
ERROR: failed to execute "certutil -A": exit status 255
certutil: function failed: SEC_ERROR_LEGACY_DATABASE: The certificate/key database is in an old, unsupported format.

I don't know what to do
Ask for help, please!
