=== issue: "The certificate/key database is in an old, unsupported format." ===
<code>
[chris@спутник tmp]$ certutil -A /home/chris/fluxcoil.net_201404.cert \
   -n fluxcoil.net -t "p,p,p"
certutil: function failed: SEC_ERROR_LEGACY_DATABASE: The certificate/key database is in an old, unsupported format.
</code>

=== Solution: explicitly specify the db-file and format ===
<code>
[chris@спутник tmp]$ certutil -d sql:/home/chris/.pki/nssdb [...]
</code>

=== How to verify that the cert is in pem format? ===
<code>
[chris@спутник tmp]$ openssl x509 -inform pem -noout -text -in /home/chris/fluxcoil.net_201404.cert

=== How to verify that you can read the cert-db? ===
<code>
[chris@спутник tmp]$ certutil -d sql:/home/chris/.pki/nssdb -L

=== issue: "SEC_ERROR_BAD_DATABASE: security library: bad database." ===
<code>

=== Solution: resolve the full path, use no variable: ===
<code>
[chris@спутник tmp]$ certutil -d sql:/home/chris/.pki/nssdb -K
certutil: Checking token "NSS Certificate DB" in slot "NSS User Private Key and Certificate Services"
