GPG Keychain: Generated new key during install... where the F did it go??
Hi! I just installed GPGTools for MacOS X (El Capitan) and
during the install it prompted me to create a new key. I did so,
and I got a prompt about my passphrase being too simple, but I said
“go ahead anyway, create the key”.
When the install was done, I tried to find my key that I had just
created, and it was nowhere to be found. It’s not in the
“GPG Keychain” window, and I did a search on the server
for my key, and it did not find it (it DID find an old one, from
1997, when I had PGP installed on my Windows PC at an
employer’s site)
Expected
I expected to see MY key in the keychain!
