[Bug 117514] Re: seahorse does not synchronize keys with keyserver

 

Switching away from buggy servers may be useful workaround for current
stable releases, but seahorse should gracefully handle buggy servers and
inform the user of the issue.

Title:
  seahorse does not synchronize keys with keyserver

Status in Seahorse:
  Confirmed
Status in “seahorse” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: seahorse

  In preferences / keyserver

  1. add a new key server: HTTP key server "keyserver.pgp.com"
  2. select as default
  3. in main window / My personal keys select key
  4. right click -> Sync and Publish keys ...

  Dialog: Synchronizing keys: Connecting to keyserver.pgp.com:11371

  After some time (5mins) an error dialog shows up: Could not
  synchronize keys

  Keys are not synchronized to the server.

  Sometimes seahorse crashes after sync-attempts (did not find a pattern
  yet)
