I started looking into this issue because it's threatening autoremoval
of podman, by virtue of being in its reverse-dependency chain. I don't
know anything else about this package, nor have I made any uploads for
it.

While looking into, I noticed that it's abandonware upstream, started
looking around and finally ended up finding your comment at
https://github.com/smallstep/pkcs7/issues/45 :)

>From there I gather that:
a) you are already aware of this issue;
b) you've already worked around it for smallstep/pkcs7;
c) you're considering replacing fullsailor/pkcs7 with smallstep/pkcs7.

Gven all that It feels like perhaps you've intentionally haven't fixed
this fullsailor/pkcs7 bug, so I wanted to check with you before working
on it. I'd love to hear your thoughts on how to proceed!

Thanks,
Faidon
