v2.1.1 Appimage - Export Full Private key doesn't work #116

Closed Shaltz closed 7 months ago

Shaltz commented 8 months ago

Hi, I am using the Appimage GPGFrontend v2.1.1 for linux. I have created a new key pair with it and now I want to export the private key to a file or to the clipboard.

When I follow the documentation from here, I am being asked for the key password and after that, nothing happens... the "Export Private Key" button stays "clicked" and nothing... it stays like this...

I can click on the button again, but then the whole process starts from the beginning but still doesn't work :( Am I missing something ? Do I need to create a subkey or something ?

thanks in advance :)
