[Bug 321287] Re: Seahorse will not generate a key

[mahen]

OK so, I figured out more or less what was wrong.

The first time I created the PGP Key, I didn't specify a password (I
wanted to check what would happen). It instantly displayed "general
error". Then, my subsequent tries triggered the issue that is specified
above.

When I tried to create the key via the terminal (as it didn't work with seahorse), here is what was displayed at the end of the process :
gpg: fatal: /home/sandra/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg: base de confiance invalide

Actually, some bad data had been stored the first time even though the process had failed.
I had deleted by hand "pubring.gpg" because I had noticed some data had been stored there, but I should have deleted the entire directory as well.

Anyway, there's a bug somewhere. Any idea where I should report it ?
