[Bug 301335] [NEW] Cannot create new PGP key with Expiration Date unchecked

[John Watts]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: seahorse

Create a new PGP Key and fill in the relevant details. Uncheck
Expiration Date. This field is confusingly named, but I know there is
already bug about that. Anyway, I would expect a dialog box allowing you
to choose the expiration date, but there is none. And if you click
create and create a passphrase, the create fails with the text
"<big><b>Couldn't generate PGP key</b></big>". I can definitely create a
key if I don't uncheck this box and set the expiration date after
creation.
