While typos in error messages and comments are (clearly) not going to cause breakage, it does make me concerned that this code, which generates the single most critical DNSSEC keys, has not received sufficient careful review. These sorts of obvious typos are not themselves a problem, but rather indicative of a larger issue. While the obvious retort is "It is publicly posted in GitHub, and we asked the community to have a look. Send pull requests!", it appears that this hasn't resulted in enough review. I used to program C, but it has been long enough that now I'm only qualified to say "Well, that doesn't seem right!" - how do we get (more) review from people who are better qualified?
I agree that the software could be improved with a code review. As far as I am aware, nobody else uses that software and that does not help to get enough review. Regards, S. Moonesamy
