Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
"openssl ca" refuses to certifiy a DN which has already been certified,
even though the old certificate has expired. As a result,
recertification requires an additional, IMHO unnecessary step.

There is this:
| #unique_subject = no # Set to 'no' to allow creation of
| # several ctificates with same
subject.
in openssl.cnf. From the changelog it was fixed in 0.9.7d.
