t/Makefile: Generate test certs if not present in sources

Open rzr opened this issue 10 months ago • 1 comments

Since generated keys have expiration date, it means that the tests are not reproductible over time. Integrator may be tempted to not rely on upstream files and generate them on the fly at built time.

This change was motivated for maintenance of 2.0.11 in Debian 12 (stable).

I noticed that upstream regerated certs in master branch since, but still they will expire in future.
