154201 - Cert Manager Tree displays n top level elements for CAs on different devices

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, defect)

Description

[Charles Rosendahl]

If a user has certificates issued by the same CA on multiple devices, such as
the software security device, one or more smartcards, etc., then there are
mulitple tree elements displayed withthe same CA label.

Only the first tree element has certificates listed underneath.  The remaining
tree elements are empty.

Example:
Two modules:  SSD and ActivCard
->America Online, Inc.
->-> SSD Certs
->-> ActivCard Certs
->America Online, Inc.
->-> <empty list>

There should only be one tree element per CA.  The empty nodes should not be
rendered.

This problem is caused by the sort order used in cert manager.

The problem can be fixed by using the sort order I have proposed in bug 121906.

However, I'm stuck with that other bug, because I don't want to decide the
changed sort order on my own and I did not yet hear comments to my proposal.

This should be fixed now by today's checkin to bug 121906.
(The early morning builds do not have the fix, but the later builds should have it.)
