Public bug reported: Ubuntu 8.10 / usability bug
Software sources should have a dialog to import Authentication keys from clipboard. Rationale: Today. Most keys are shared as copy-paste snippets on web pages (example: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Adding%20a%20PPA%20to%20your%20Ubuntu%20repositories). The user needs to go through the extra steps to copy text, create a text file, paste in text and locate this text file as a root user on his/her harddrive to be able to a new key. This is very difficult. ** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: usability -- Authentication > Import key as copy-paste option missing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372577 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
