From @martinX3:

I did clean my gpg key with gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.32 and lost one of my uid's. in thunderbird.

It's my gmail uid. https://keys.openpgp.org/search?q=130A7C7B515BECE7

Probably a bug. I also can't import the .asc file from this keyserver in thunderbird. But GnuPG can import it.
Also updating the key via the thunderbird ui (downloading from keyserver), doesn't update the key. Removed uid's are still part of the key. So the only way was to remove they key and import it again from a file or via keyserver search. The thunderbird key file export is also polluted by these restricted keys. So in fact it's really not updated in the thunderbird key database.

@MartinX3 I've created this new ticket instead of reopening the old one.

@ni4 or @antonsviridenko could you have a look here? Thanks!

MartinX3 commented 2 years ago

I'm sorry. Thank you very much! :)

@ronaldtse may I pick this up?

ni4 commented 2 years ago

@andrey-utkin Let me re-check it first. It could be related to already fixed issue in RNP v0.16.0 (which didn't get into the Thunderbird release yet, as far as I know).

MartinX3 commented 2 years ago

@ni4 Ahhh. How can I see as an end user whichversion thunderbird 91.6.1 uses?

ni4 commented 2 years ago

Thunderbird 91.6.1 uses RNP v0.15.2, and, actually, that should fix the issue I suspected (fixed via PR #1531 and included into the v0.15.2 release). Also RNP marks that uid as valid in version v0.15.2 as well in v0.16.0. So it could be an issue from the Thunderbird side as it does some processing on top of RNP decisions.

ni4 commented 2 years ago

@kaie Do you have any suggestions? As I checked, RNP v0.15.2 marks all uids from the aforementioned key as valid.
