[Bug 139988] Re: Uploading 'OpenPGP key' help is incorrect (+editpgpkeys)

 

Mi addition is so trivial I decided to add it here rather than opening a
new bug.

When trying to sign the ubuntu code of conduct, it takes time (ca. 10
minutes) for launchpad to realise a new key has been uploaded on the
server. So, when following the instructions (which points towards a
"direct query" to the server that answers positively) the user can't
understand what's going on and why the fingerprint is not accepted.

PROPOSAL: in the alert dialogue that shows on page reload, it should be
added a "possible source of problem" something like "you have just
uploaded your GPG public key. Please allow 10 minutes for launchpad to
syncronise with the keyserver".
