If we recreate +these certificates, and the resulting public certificates are not the same length anymore, the commonName may be +changed to line them up again. https://github.com/google/der-ascii is a useful tool for doing this. For example: + +To convert the certificate to ascii: +der2ascii -i dep1.der -o dep1.ascii + +Then use your favourite editor to change the commonName field.
