+  fix: vpn-router-setup, vpn-router-ca and /ca read a CA's key and CRL from the directory each as itself, instead of failing on a CA with a CRL.
+
+  * A CA's CRL was read as its key and its key as its CRL, so every
+    operation on a CA with a CRL failed with "Could not deserialize key
+    data".

   fix: the PKI is kept in ou=pki of the router's directory instead of files under /etc/vpn-router/pki, and the router's site-to-site certificate names only the identities its connections present, and /ca/bundle gives the certificate bundle of a CA.
