Title:
problem importing gpg keys "Fatal: can't create directory
'/home/hazrpg/~/.gnupg': No such file or directory
Status in seahorse package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
There is a problem when importing a GPG private key from a backup, the
error message says the File or Directory does not exist - and it looks
like its because of the way it's trying to access it.
Here's the exact error (verbose as its displayed):
Import failed: Fatal: can't create directory '/home/hazrpg/~/.gnupg':
No such file or directory
It looks like its trying to access ~/.gnupg and at the same time
trying to put that in the /home/hazrpg/ directory (hazrpg being my
username). It should be one or the other, so its probably a simple
fix.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open up seahorse.
2) Click on "File" -> "Import...".
3) Select any valid GPG key file (public, private, etc).
4) Verify its valid with the "Data to be imported:" section and then click on
"Import".
5) Error message shows in red below the "Data to be imported:" section with
the above message.
