Summary0011288: GNUNET_CRYPTO_get_peer_identity() is still being used
DescriptionI think long term the function `GNUNET_CRYPTO_get_peer_identity()` should be removed and replaced by relying on the PILS service in all cases to retrieve the peer's public identity key. As a transition the function `GNUNET_CRYPTO_get_peer_identity()` could be deprecated so that all services and other libraries/applications, relying on it, can transition to using the PILS service.
Additional InformationI noticed this function is still being used while debugging the messenger application since it is still used inside libgnunetchat. So I will prepare a transition in there for its next release since it's causing some minor issues too. I'm not sure how much the function is used in other projects besides the GNUnet services (DHT and SETU have usage) themselves.
