Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2014-04-08 09:25:50 UTC
On F20 gnutls always generates encrypted PKCS #8 private keys even when no password is supplied:

$ certtool --generate-privkey --pkcs8 --outfile pkcs8.key
Generating a 2432 bit RSA private key...
Enter password: 
$ head -n1 pkcs8.key
-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
