Package: kopete
Version: 4:4.3.4-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

when connecting to a Jabber server via TLS I get a dialog with the
following information:

  The identity and the certificate of server example.com could not be
  validated for account [email protected]:
  The certificate is invalid.
  The certificate is self-signed.
  Do you want to continue?

  [ ] Do not ask again.
  (Continue) (Cancel)

This is not very helful.  The following information should be included:

1. Why is the certificate considered invalid?  Is it expired?  Does the
included CN not match the expected value?

2. If it is self-signed, or signed by a CA that is not trusted, it
should display more information about the certificate such as the
fingerprint and CN.  This would make it possible to verify the
certificate via some other means.

3. What does "Do not ask again." mean here?  Remember this certificate
and do not ask again for (this certificate, this server) or never notify
me again of certificate problems?

Regards,
Ansgar
