Details
Description:
Currently it is not possible to import PGP keys using Gnome Seahorse likely because there is no package called pinentry-gnome3 (it's also not in AUR), that other distributions have, like here for Debian: https://packages.debian.org/sid/utils/pinentry-gnome3 So the problem is, when selecting a PGP key to be imported, it first shows the key data, but importing fails without any error message as the box for entering the passphrase never comes up. Importing a key in console works. Additional info: Tested with extra/seahorse 1:3.34-1 Steps to reproduce: Try to import a PGP key. |
This task depends upon

pacman -Qkk pinentry?
@arojas, already checked, the pinentry-gnome3 binary is present,
so this was a wrong assumption. It's not working as described
nonetheless, so this may be an upstream issue instead.
