Title:
seahorse should prompt for creating a revocation certificate after
having created private and public keys
Status in Seahorse:
Expired
Status in “seahorse” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: seahorse
Seahorse seems not to have a tool to create a revocation certificate which is
an fundamental step after having created private and public key. In fact this
is a security issue (you can read this in all gpg guides) as if your key was
compromised, or you lose you personal passwd, you can only inform the "world"
about this revoking the key with a revocation certificate.
I think it should be useful to prompt for creating the revocation certificate
just after having created you own private and public key (this option should be
obvioulsy always provided also after this initial step)
I have tested this issue in Hardy Heron and seahorse 2.22.2
