Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnupg
In my GPG keyring, I have 312 keys (including mine) and 71350
signatures. I regularly do a "--refresh-keys" to download new
signatures.
For the last few days, I get the following error message (or warning)
when doing anything with my keyring:
gpg: buffer shorter than subpacket
gpg: buffer shorter than subpacket
gpg: signature packet without keyid
gpg: buffer shorter than subpacket
(I refer to these four lines as "message block" further down.)
When doing gpg --rebuild-keydb-caches, I get this message block once.
When doing gpg --check-trustdb, I get this message block 6 times.
When doing gpg --refresh-keys, I get this message 10 times: Once at the
beginning and 9 times at the end of the process.
I'm not really sure whether this really is a bug in gnupg or just a
malformed key (and if so, how I can find out which key it is).
** Affects: gnupg (Ubuntu)
