Andre: what's missing regarding PCKS#7 in
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/html_node/X509-certificate-API.html#X509-certificate-API
? (note i'm a total noob regarding PCKS :D)

>From what  i see you can go gnutls_pkcs7_export + gnutls_x509_crl_import and
then the x509 thing offers lots of getter, no?

If that does not work for you, what big projects do with openssl (i.e. Qt) is
dlopen it on runtime, that seems to avoid the gpl incompatibiltiy which if you
ask me is a bit lame, but if it works for them i guess it should work for us.

What is missing in gnutls? I think that you have to use the pcks7 export and
pass the data to the x509 import and then you have all those useful functions.

If none of the options is enough, we can do what big projects do (e.g. Qt) and
dlopen openssl, if it works for them, it ought to work for us.
