Description André Klapper 2015-03-09 01:40:24 UTC
F22, Evolution and Seahorse 3.15.90.

Under "PGP Keys > GnuPG keys", Seahorse shows two "Personal PGP key"s, with the name that I entered and the email address (if I defined it).
I created these two keys in this GNOME session by following https://help.gnome.org/users/seahorse/stable/pgp-create.html

Going to "Edit > Preferences > Mail Accounts > Edit > Security > Pretty Good Privacy > OpenPGP Key ID", I have no idea how to get any dropdown proposals (that v arrow is always disabled).

Am I really supposed to start Seahorse, right-click on a PGP key, choose "Properties", mark the Key ID, copy it, and paste it?

If yes, why is there a dropdown element displayed on the right of "OpenPGP Key ID" if it's just a simple text field with no dropdown proposals?

(I was trying to update https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/unstable/mail-encryption-gpg-set-up so for the time being I'll tell people to start Seahorse. Meh.)
Comment 1 Milan Crha 2015-03-09 10:52:09 UTC
Works for me with:
   libcryptui-3.12.2-4.fc21.x86_64
   seahorse-3.14.0-3.fc21.x86_64

Added key is shown in the evolution's UI. I cannot test this in rawhide, with:
   libcryptui-3.12.2-4.fc22.x86_64
   seahorse-3.15.90-1.fc23.x86_64

because seahorse crashes for me as soon as I confirm to create a PGP Key with a backtrace at bug #744195. So the problem can be:
a) seahorse is not setting right flags on the key (evolution accepts only
   CRYPTUI_FLAG_CAN_SIGN and CRYPTUI_FLAG_IS_VALID and is not expired/revoked/
   disabled).
b) libcryptui misses the key for some reason, or sets flags incorrectly.

I'm moving this to seahorse/libcryptui for further investigation.
