Public bug reported: Binary package hint: seahorse
In Ubuntu 8.10 ("Intrepid"), seahorse 2.24.1 does not import secret keys. To reproduce the problem, get an ascii armored secret key, for example via the command "gpg --export-secret-key -a <your-name-or-email> --output privkey.asc", and try to import this file into seahorse, either via "seahorse-tool -i privkey.asc" or by starting seahorse, clicking "Keys", "Import..." (or pressing Ctrl+I) and choosing privkey.asc. Seahorse shows no error message and imports nothing, if you start seahorse from the command line you can see the following error: ** (seahorse:5615): WARNING **: imported key but then couldn't find it in keyring This seems to a major bug because there seems to be no other way to import an existing private keyfile and thus encrypting files via the nautilus context menu is not possible with an existing key.
