Public bug reported: Binary package hint: seahorse
Seahorse seems not to have a tool to create a revocation certificate which is an fundamental step after having created private and public key. In fact this is a security issue (you can read this in all gpg guides) as if your key was compromised, or you lose you personal passwd, you can only inform the "world" about this revoking the key with a revocation certificate. I think it should be useful to prompt for creating the revocation certificate just after having created you own private and public key (this option should be obvioulsy always provided also after this initial step) I have tested this issue in Hardy Heron and seahorse 2.22.2 ** Affects: seahorse (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: whishlist ** Tags added: whishlist -- seahorse should prompt for creating a revocation certificate after having created private and public keys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330569 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
