[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 240 Better cert nickname handling

A few issues were found in the way we identify the root cert to trust 
when importing PKCS#12 files. The regex was not specific enough and 
there is no need to explicitly trust root CAs that are built into NSS.

I also did a little bit of code cleanup to add logging and remove an 
unused import.

And finally, I added a bit of code that should help a basic install on 
Fedora 11. The certutil on Fedora 11 doesn't return untrusted CAs in its 
-O output. This will fix the self-signed IPA default CA case anway.

If acked I'll push a similar patch to the 1-2 branch as well. We lack 
the self-signed CA awareness so I'm not sure how I'm going to tackle 
that yet but I suspect that I'll simply make it the default if no CA is 
found (along with a log entry saying so).
