Subject: Re: [GIT PULL] Asymmetric keys and module signing


Hi Rusty,

I've pushed two additional patches.  The first makes the X.509 cert signature
use the same hash algorithm as the signatures on the modules - which should
fix the problem you're seeing, I think.  The second makes elements of the
names use UTF8 strings, just in case someone wants to use accented characters.

David
