Hi Geetika,

Similar to what I mentioned to Abhijeet, I added your patch to this 
ticket to make sure it's not forgotten:
https://fedorahosted.org/pki/ticket/2414

I looked at the patch briefly, I think instead of fixing it in 
PKCS12CertRemoveCLI, it probably should be fixed in the 
PKCS12.removeCertInfoByNickname(). Basically if the cert to be deleted 
doesn't exist the method should throw an exception. The CLI then should 
catch the exception and display the error. This way the error checking 
will be done consistently regardless who calls the method.

If you're going to revise the patch please attach it to this ticket.

Thanks.
