Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: seahorse

Seahorse apparently doesn't recognize clearsigned or attached signatures
and only creates and recognizes detached .sig files.  If I attempt to
open a file made with the command "gpg --clearsign file" (output:
file.asc), seahorse tells me: "Couldn't decrypt file: file.asc.  No
data".  If I try to verify (seahorse-tool -v file), I get the message
Couldn't verify file: file.asc. No valid signatures found."  Same thing
with a file created with "gpg -s file" (output: file.gpg).

It seems to me that seahorse should offer more or less the same
underlying functionality as gnupg.  I often have to go to the command
line to do things like this that could easily be done through a nautilus
context menu.

Seahorse should be able to verify/handle formats created by gnupg
