It goes through till I set what I want - RSA key, set the strength (tried the default and later also changed to stronger - no difference in the bug behavior) put in full name and e-mail address and then asked for password and to confirm it. I did all that and the window came up "Generating Key" informing me that if I do a lot of actions such as mouse movements and so on then I help to generate the random data. The bar goes back and forth indicating the process is working. After a while, in some minutes later another window pops up with the message: "Couldn't generate PGP key, General error" Leaves only on option "Close" No key gets generated. I am using Ubuntu 13.10 on a Dell Inspiron 17R system with 8 GB ram. All packages are up to date. No other system errors currently (there was something with wine porfolio package not updating, but I have fixed that yesterday - I wouldn't think that it would be related anyway.) Seahorse version: 3.8.2 Other than this error Seahorse seems to work all right and is keeping my passwords, can add new ones manually and generally seems to perform all right - besides the above bug. The bug can be reproduced every time on my system. Tried it 3 times with the same result. Let me know if I should upload any extra log files. I can help on the rest of the bug process too if needed (can not program, but can test or do other such things). Marked it as security vulnerability since effects a security program, also I need a PGP key for secure work and can't make one.
