I know some people on here sign their messages and I understand why at least some of them do it. What I don't understand is how to make use of those signatures. Taking just one recent signed message as an example, I tried to check the signature on one of Carlos' recent messages. When I clicked on the icon to verify it my MUA (Claws) said: Key 0xB533181C6D8D47D5 not available to verify this signature and when I look at a more detailed explanation, it says: Importing key ID B533181C6D8D47D5: This key couldn't be imported to your keyring. Key servers are sometimes slow. You can try to import it manually with the command: "/usr/bin/gpg2" --batch --no-tty --recv-keys B533181C6D8D47D5 When I try to run that command (and I have no idea why it quotes the command - what's that all about?): $ "/usr/bin/gpg2" --batch --no-tty --recv-keys B533181C6D8D47D5 gpg: keyserver receive failed: Cannot assign requested address Searching hasn't provided me with any enlightenment and the man page doesn't list or explain the error messages. So can anybody point me to an idiot's guide to what's supposed to happen and how to make it so? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
