Package: gnupg Version: 1.4.18-7 Severity: important File: /usr/bin/gpg Tags: l10n
gpg can't seem to operate properly if the environment is not correctly set: [1007]anarcat@marcos:~$ LANG=C gpg --search-keys ='Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>' gpg: searching for "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>" from hkp server pool.sks-keyservers.net gpg: key "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>" not found on keyserver [1008]anarcat@marcos:~$ LANG=C.UTF-8 gpg --search-keys ='Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>' gpg: searching for "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>" from hkp server pool.sks-keyservers.net (1) Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré (work) <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré (Debian) <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré (home address) <[email protected]> 4096 bit RSA key 7B75921E, created: 2009-05-29, expires: 2016-06-01 (2) The Anarcat <[email protected]> The Anarcat <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> 1024 bit DSA key 4023702F, created: 2005-03-08, expires: 2010-03-12 (revoked) (expired) Keys 1-2 of 2 for "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>". Enter number(s), N)ext, or Q)uit > q This is pretty annoying, because it expects *everyone* to have a UTF-8 locale. Because my uid has an accent in it, it makes it impossible for some people to search for my key on the keyservers. This is also a problem with gpg2: [1002]anarcat@marcos:~$ LANG=C gpg2 --search-keys ='Antoine Beaupré <a gpg: searching for "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>" from hkp server po gpg: key "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>" not found on keyserver [1003]anarcat@marcos:~$ LANG=C.UTF-8 gpg2 --search-keys ='Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>' gpg: searching for "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>" from hkp server pool.sks-keyservers.net (1) Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré (work) <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré (Debian) <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré (home address) <[email protected]> 4096 bit RSA key 7B75921E, created: 2009-05-29, expires: 2016-06-01 (2) The Anarcat <[email protected]> The Anarcat <[email protected]> Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]> 1024 bit DSA key 4023702F, created: 2005-03-08, expires: 2010-03-12 (revoked) (expired) Keys 1-2 of 2 for "=Antoine Beaupré <[email protected]>".
