Hi,
a broken pairing entry in /var/lib/lockdown contains this, as expected:
<key>DeviceCertificate</key>
<data>
</data>
The DeviceCertificate contains no data in case of a broken entry. This
should be easy to detect. Here is an example using xmlstarlet:
if test -z $(xmlstarlet sel -t -v
'//key[.="DeviceCertificate"]/following-sibling::data[1]'
74f06bdcba12be895b317ff02107cf4f15b8b0d0.plist) ; then
rm foo.plist
fi
This would require a dependency to xmlstarlet, though.
Regards,
Tino
