[Pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#682064: output of --fingerprint <keyid> and --with-fingerprint <keyfile> should be identical

[Evgeni Golov]

Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.12-4+b1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream

Hi,

I think the output of
 gpg --fingerprint <keyid>
and
 gpg --with-fingerprint <exported_key.file>
should (at least try to) be identical.

This is currently not the case:

As you can see, the first UID is printed above the fingerprint when
using --with-fingerprint. This confuses tools like gpgsigs as it does
not recognise this as an uid line and thus ignores the uid completely.
