Follow-up Comment #8, bug #24198 (project duplicity): If you use gpg --edit-key you must set the trust level to "5 - ultimately trusted," or it won't work. Is that a distinct operation from signing the encryption key? Signing sounds like it would be cleaner...
Hmm, no signing is different: http://www.debian.org/events/keysigning However, I tried to set my trust level back to 'unknown' and then sign the key: ============ # gpg --edit-key 0559398E gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.9; Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

This should all be in some helpful duplicity guide rather than a bug report, so please consider this a documentation bug. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?24198> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Duplicity-tracker mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/duplicity-tracker
