RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Rich Megginson 2010-07-14 17:02:02 UTC
Created attachment 431844 [details]
0001-Add-support-for-PKCS-8-encoded-private-keys.patch

These are PEM files which in ASCII begin with the header

BEGIN PRIVATE KEY

The code already supports PKCS#1 format BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY but the openssl req -x509 tool creates private keys with the BEGIN PRIVATE KEY format.

There is a second patch attached - with mock and the latest RHEL-6 bits, nss did not build because SEC_SkipTemplate is defined more than once.  Not sure why we don't see this problem with the regular RHEL-6 builds in brew, so I don't know if it is needed, but I've attached it anyway.
