seahorse-tool does not or only partially import keys
Last modified: 2018-08-03 19:49:57 UTC
debian stretch/sid (seahorse-nautils 3.11.92-1): when trying to import a key using seahorse-tool --import keyfile.key, the key only gets imported partially. i.e. when importing the tails-signing.key from https://tails.boum.org/tails-signing.key, it only imports the expired parts of the key: ~$ wget https://tails.boum.org/tails-signing.key ~$ seahorse-tool --import tails-signing.key ~$ gpg --list-keys 0xDBB802B258ACD84F pub 4096R/0xDBB802B258ACD84F 2015-01-18 [expired: 2016-01-11] Key fingerprint = A490 D0F4 D311 A415 3E2B B7CA DBB8 02B2 58AC D84F uid [ expired] Tails developers (offline long-term identity key) <tails@boum.org> ~$ gpg --import tails-signing.key ~$ gpg --list-keys 0xDBB802B258ACD84F pub 4096R/0xDBB802B258ACD84F 2015-01-18 [expires: 2017-01-11] Key fingerprint = A490 D0F4 D311 A415 3E2B B7CA DBB8 02B2 58AC D84F uid [ unknown] Tails developers (offline long-term identity key) <tails@boum.org> uid [ unknown] Tails developers <tails@boum.org> sub 4096R/0x98FEC6BC752A3DB6 2015-01-18 [expires: 2017-01-11] sub 4096R/0x3C83DCB52F699C56 2015-01-18 [expires: 2017-01-11] trying to reproduce the problem on a Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-23-10.iso (seahorse-nautilus 3.11.92-5.fc23) the key wasn't imported at all.
