Package: gnupg Version: 1.4.11-3 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/gpg Dear Maintainer,
the gpg manpage states: clean: Compact (by removing all signatures except the selfsig) any user ID that is no longer usable (e.g. revoked, or expired). Then, remove any signatures that are not usable by the trust calculations. Specifically, this removes any signature that does not validate, any signature that is superseded by a later signature, revoked signatures, and signatures issued by keys that are not present on the keyring. Now one of my friends revoked his key and i do not seem to get rid of the key. I think it would be good when the signature of revoked keys would not be shown afer cleaning - i am not sure if the manpages says that or is talking about revoked signatures _only_ and not keys. It definitely says: Specifically, this removes any signature ... and signatures issued by keys that are not present on the keyring. So i have changed trust, disabled and finally deleted the key. But it still shows up when checking sigs. I know that i do not get rid of signature (as they keep coming back from the key servers - which makes a working clean even more important) but it would make checking signatures and exporting the key easier. I have not checked but i have not much hope that the --export-clean option works as intended. Best regards!!
