Control: severity -1 grave Control: tags -1 +patch Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the bug report! It seems you have stumbled upon a dusty path in the GTK UI that is neither unit tested or often used by graphical users. I believe you may be attempting to sign a key that is already in your local keyring, which is freaking out some handler. Could you try the attached crude patch and see if it fixes the problem for you?

It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only
do little. Do what you can.
