Description

Until the test suite scenario is updated this can be verified with the following:

1. `gpg —recv-key —keyserver-options import-clean 0x1D84CCF010CC5BC7`
2. Open Seahorse
3. Enable key synchronization in Edit → Preferences
4. Sync keys from Remote → Sync and Publish Keys
5. Click the Sync button
6. Check the number of signatures with `gpg —list-sigs 0x1D84CCF010CC5BC7`. You should have more than 3 signatures.

This works in Wheezy. It does not in Jessie.

That’s because our wrapping of seahorse by torsocks, in seahorse.desktop, is apparently not enough: I see direct connections to the keyserver being blocked by the firewall. I tried wrapping seahorse-pgp-keys.desktop the same way, and it is not enough / doesn’t help.

OTOH, running torsocks seahorse in a Terminal gives me a seahorse that can fetch keys perfectly fine.
