| Summary | 0001290: Information that there is no option to renew signature on PGP key, the key has to be added again | ||||
| Description | It is not possible to get a direct new (additional) signature on a PGP key, when the validity of the CAcert signature runs out. Instead one has to upload the PGP key again and request a new signature, again. (As one would have to do with another PGP key.) As this is quite different of how x509 certificates are treated, it would be good to add a short explanation about this to the "show pgp keys" page, how one can "renew" the CAcert signature (and maybe even why the current process is set up like it is). | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Add a pgp key to an account and request a signature from CAcert. Go to the "show PGP"-page and try to "renew" the signature. This is not possible (which is ok) but there is not explanation or description. | ||||
