Package: seahorse
Version: 3.14.0-1
Severity: normal
seahorse doesn't allow me to create new SSH keys using the graphical
interface.
Steps to reproduce:
1. open seahorse
2. click File > New (or hit Ctrl+N)
3. select "Secure Shell Key"
4. nothing happens
Expected result:
* open a new GUI window with further options to create the SSH key.
On stderr the following error messages get printed.
(seahorse:pid): seahorse-WARNING **: could not find widget algorithm-choice for seahorse-ssh-generate.xml
(seahorse:pid): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer instance
(seahorse:pid): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_signal_connect_data: assertion 'G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE (instance)' failed
(seahorse:pid): seahorse-WARNING **: could not find widget algorithm-choice for seahorse-ssh-generate.xml
(seahorse:pid): seahorse-CRITICAL **: seahorse_ssh_generate_show: assertion 'widget != NULL' failed
Interestingly enough, selecting the same option again (File > New;
"Secure Shell Key") creates a GUI menu with three options "Just Create
Key", "Cancel", and "Create and Set Up". By clicking on any of these
buttons doesn't invoke any action so it seems. Hitting the escape key
closes the window, though.
