            Bug ID: 403534
           Summary: Wrong and misleading definition of a certificate’s
                    subject
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: karl at huftis.org
  Target Milestone: ---

In (currently line 142 of) okular/ui/certificateviewer.cpp, ‘Subject’ is
defined as ‘The person/company that made the signature’, as is used as a hint
to translators. But the definition is wrong. It’s actually the definition of
‘Issuer’, *not* of ‘Subject’.

The ‘Subject’ is (very simply put) the entity the certificate was issued *to*.
Or the ‘target of the certificate’, if you’d like.
