Today I imported and tried to encrypt to a public key which has this
basic structure:
:public key packet:

:user id packet: "NAME2 <EMAIL2>"
:signature packet: algo 17, keyid FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

subpkt 16 len 9 (issuer key ID FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF)
data: [157 bits]
data: [160 bits]
:user id packet: "Thawte Freemail Member <EMAIL3>"
:signature packet: algo 1, keyid 9335363C3CE4352F
version 3, created 923095501, md5len 5, sigclass 10
digest algo 1, begin of digest 13 60
data: [1024 bits]
:public sub key packet:
version 4, algo 16, created 923095501, expires 0
pkey[0]: [4096 bits]
pkey[1]: [2 bits]
pkey[2]: [4094 bits]
:signature packet: algo 17, keyid FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
version 4, created 923095501, md5len 0, sigclass 18
digest algo 2, begin of digest 27 89
hashed subpkt 2 len 5 (sig created 1999-04-02)
subpkt 16 len 9 (issuer key ID FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF)
data: [160 bits]
data: [160 bits]
(I've replaced the owner's keyid with FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF and all the
dates with today to occlude the key. This key, as it was sent to me,
is not in the servers, else I would include a pointer to it. I do not
know that I have the owner's permission to distribute it.)
After importing it, the 4th user id packet and the subsequent packets,
esp including the algo 16 public sub key packet, are lost. As such,
it is imposible to encrypt to this key. (NB loading the rsa module or
not makes no difference.)
Is the thawte rsa sig the problem? Or perhaps that the NAME3 uid
packet and the Thawte Freemail Member uid packet each have the same
email address?
Hmmm. Time passes.
I just found the original version of the key in the servers. By
importing that first, and then importing the version I was sent, all
of the packets except the Thawte Freemail Member uid packet show up in
my ring.
I appears, then, that if there is a second uid packet with a given
address but a different name then that and all subsequent packets are
lost during an import.... [SIGH]
Werner: if you need any further info to fix this bug, please ask.
