It might be that these entries are deliberately malformed, but seahorse also doesn't display them appropriately.
** Summary changed: - Searching keyserver with dot containing string causes parsing error + Searching keyserver with string containing dots causes parsing error -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to seahorse in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1704678 Title: Searching keyserver with string containing dots causes parsing error Status in seahorse package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Using seahorse function "Remote" > "Find Remote Keys" and typing in a name that contains dots results in very strange output. Where the names are usually display is a mess of characters as if the same position was drawn multiple times with different chars. Instead of the e-mail address there is what seems to be code. Unfortunately I closed seahorse and I didn't take a screenshot, key servers are currently giving me internal server errors (hopefully this issue didn't occur on the server side). One possible string that seem to trigger the bug is "S.H.I.E.L.D." --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.6 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-04-19 (88 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20170215.2) Package: seahorse 3.18.0-2ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.8.0-58.63~16.04.1-generic 4.8.17 Tags: xenial Uname: Linux 4.8.0-58-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse/+bug/1704678/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
