NewPKI Client can't load a PKCS#12 certificate to connect to the PKI.

Binary package hint: newpki-client

The NewPKI Client can't connect using a PKCS#12 file. Once the users has selected the certificate, and entered the (good or bad) passphrase, it issues an error :

« system library #21 is a directory [bss_file.c:198] »

Attached is a patch that corrects the issue. It should be inserted in the debian/pacthes/wx2.6 patch.

Actually, there's a small typo in the previous patch. One should replace « char * » with « char* ».

Anyway, I'm adding a patch for the wx2.6 package patch :=)

After playing a bit with my new working newpki-client, I noticed that
the « remember my PKCS#12 file » feature was also broken.

That is, once you load you certificate and connect to the PKI, a file
~/.newpki/client_pki is written with the informations you used to login
(server, port, entity, and certificate).

Currently, the same bug happens when writting this file than what
prevented us to open the certificate.

I join a full patch for the debian package's wx2.6 compatibility patch,
that also corrects this behavior. This patch includes the first one.

Have fun.
