Description gits1225 2013-06-28 10:15:09 UTC
Server Authenticity check dialog pops up on startup, even though the certificate is saved forever.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect to an IRC server that supports SSL, but without a signed certificate from a trusted authority.
2. Save the certificate 'forever' in the following dialogue.
3. Restart Konversation, and connect to the same server.

I can confirm the same behavior in 1.5. To reproduce: add freenode and use the server name chat.au.freenode.net. Because the wildcard certificate doesn't match you'll get the SSL error, click to accept an exception and click to save it forever. Upon any reconnect you will get the same error.

Hello Andrew.

Thanks for checking the bug report. I filed this a long time back and I don't use KDE these days. It'll be a lot of work to setup everything to test this one bug.

Please delete the report (I don't see an option to do so).

Thanks.

freenode uses proper certificates now, so I don't have a means to test the problem as it existed before. So, the problem may or may not exist, but I don't have an easily accessible means of testing it myself--I'd have to setup my own XMPP server and use a self-signed cert. I'm a bit busy to take that on right now.
