As described in my report T1644, it is possible that multiple
certificates exist with the same Distinguished Name and the same key.
In this case, verifying S/MIME signatures and other actions fail with
"certificate not found: Ambiguous name". For details see the bug
report.
To circumvent the problem, I am patching GnuPG since 2014 so that in
this case the newest of the ambiguous certificates is used.
This is not an ultimate solution of the problem: You should try every
certificate with the same DN until verification succeeds or until all
certificates fail, and if multiple certificates of a chain are
ambiguous you even have to check every combination. You may even
consider checking the keyUsage attributes of the ambiguous certificates
to reduce the number of combinations.
But in the existing case of the certificates in the German Research
Network (DFN) PKI where the newest one is the valid one and all
ambiguous certificates have the same keyUsage attributes, this patch
has proven to be sufficient over the last three years.
With every GnuPG update, I have adapted the patch, luckily I never
needed to change anything except line numbers.

This is the first part of changes to implement the STEED proposal as
described at http://g10code.com/steed.html . The idea for X.509 is
not to use plain self-signed certificates but certificates signed by a
dummy CA (i.e. one for which the private key is known). Having a
single CA as an indication for the use of STEED might help other X.509
implementations to implement STEED.
Since 2009-12-08 gpg was not able to find email addresses indicated
by a leading '<'. This happened when I merged the user id
classification code of gpgsm and gpg.
We better do this once and for all instead of cluttering all future
commits with diffs of trailing white spaces. In the majority of cases
blank or single lines are affected and thus this change won't disturb
a git blame too much. For future commits the pre-commit scripts
checks that this won't happen again.

communication or you want to do faster tests.
