As mentioned in the initial mail in the bug by brian m. carlson,
it creates the keys in /etc, not in /etc/dnssec-trigger and
the latter is where dnssec-triggerd looks for the keys.

That seems like the reasonable thing to do as long as the code for this
checks that the keys are long enough for the new openssl. It should
probably also add a trigger on the openssl files, so that merely
upgrading openssl to the new version does the delete and restart.

I am using GNOME. The panel item was *not* working and thus generating
the errors in the dnssec-triggerd logs. This is because after the key
was replaced and the daemon restarted, it didn't reload the key from
disk and use the new one instead of the old one. So the panel needs to
handle a daemon restart (I assume it gets notification of that event)
by reloading the key before connecting to the newly restarted daemon.
