* The spki_* variants operate on the SubjectPublicKeyInfo of the certificate, which does
* not change unless the private key is changed. This allows the fingerprint to stay
* constant even if the certificate is reissued. These fingerprints will be prefixed with
* "SPKI:SHA2-256:" or "SPKI:SHA2-512:" depending on the hash type.
* "SPKI:SHA2-256:" or "SPKI:SHA2-512:" depending on the hash type. These fingerprints

* To generate a fingerprint from a certificate file, please use the mkfingerprint utility
* program located in the bin/ subdirectory of your IRCd installation. Running it with no
* arguments will give you a brief usage message; it takes method and filename arguments.
