alpacon authority delete

This command deletes a certificate authority (CA). Only a CA that has never received a certificate request can be deleted. If the CA has received any request, the deletion is refused and the CA is kept along with its sign requests, certificate records, and revocations.

To stop using a CA that has history, delete the server it runs on. See Retiring a CA with history.
