Package: openssl
Version: 0.9.7e-3
Severity: normal
It looks like the addition of -next_serial might have broken -CAserial
in the x509 command. I did an strace on the following command:
openssl x509 -CA ca/crt.pem \
-CAkey ca/key.pem \
-CAserial ca/serial \
-req -days 730 \
-in req/a-request \
-out crt/a-certificate
Prior to the command ca/serial would contain `01'. The certificate
would get the random 64bit value described in the changelog and the
strace shows that openssl doesn't even open the ca/serial file.
Sent an incorrectly formatet report earlier. Hope this helps more.

Hi,
I believe this was fixed in 0.9.8, it works for me. The serial gets
increased. It doesn't work with 0.9.7 (from sarge) though.
