Public bug reported: I try to sign some keys:
$ caff 0xKEYID [INFO] Importing key 0xKEYID from your normal GnuPGHome. [INFO] fetching keys, this will take a while... [INFO] Sign the following keys according to your policy, then exit gpg with 'save' after signing each key gpg --homedir=/home/robin/.caff/gnupghome --secret-keyring /home/robin/.gnupg/secring.gpg --no-auto-check-trustdb --trust-model=always --edit 0xLONGKEYID sign gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.12; Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
