I imported the key with GPG 1.4.2 with: import-options repair-pks-subkey-bug import-clean-sigs import-clean-uids set in gpg.conf and it gave the "assuming bad signature" thing, then carried on as normal. Re-importing it through GPGshell cleaned 2 signatures, but re-importing through gpg on the command line added the sigs again. Even re-importing using: gpg --import-options repair-pks-subkey-bug --import-options import-clean-sigs --import-options import-clean-uids --recv-keys 0xE0BB4BCD on the command line re-added the signatures, but --edit-key clean removed them again. This definately seems like a bug. Fortunately, my keyring didn't bork itself... - -- Alphax | /"\ Encrypted Email Preferred | \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign OpenPGP key ID: 0xF874C613 | X Against HTML email & vCards http://tinyurl.com/cc9up | / \ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDAHsb/RxM5Ph0xhMRA9wGAJwIVz6O2blb3wMKMTRsd3WUJP6iHwCfWRiu R0V5shmxbZAP+eOHKkvI/NE= =zIQo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
