Originally created by @taam on GitHub (Apr 16, 2021).

command_sign_csr first does some IO redirection, then calls init_system, which might call sudo:

Solution might be as easy as calling init_system before doing the redirects, but I don't know the internals.

Thx. I swapped the lines as suggested.

This will result in some informational messages being output to stdout as well, but that should be less of a problem as there was additional output before anyway and PEM format should ignore anything outside BEGIN/END blocks.
