   <title>Creating a GPG key</title>
 
-<note style="advanced"><p>These steps are very technical. For average users we recommend using the <link 
xref="help:seahorse/pgp-create"
-href="https://help.gnome.org/users/seahorse/stable/pgp-create";><app>Seahorse</app> application</link> for 
creating GPG/OpenPGP keys.</p></note>

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508744 is fixed. -->
-
-<p>Before you can get or send GPG encrypted mail, you need to generate your public and private keys with 
GPG.</p>
-<steps>
-<item><p>Open the <app>Terminal</app> application and enter <cmd>gpg --gen-key</cmd>.</p></item>
-<item><p>Select an algorithm, then press Enter.</p></item>
-<item><p>Select a key length, then press Enter.</p></item>
-<item><p>Enter how long your key should be valid for.</p></item>
-<item><p>Type your real name, then press Enter.</p></item>
-<item><p>Type your email address, then press Enter.</p></item>
-<item><p>(Optional) Type a comment, then press Enter.</p></item>
-<item><p>Review your selected user ID. If it is correct, press O.</p></item>
-<item><p>Type a passphrase, then press Enter.</p></item>
-<item><p>Move your mouse randomly to generate the keys.</p></item>
-</steps>
-
-<p>After the keys are generated, you can view your key information by entering <cmd>gpg --list-keys</cmd>. 
You should see something similar to this:  <code> /home/you/.gnupg/pubring.gpg ----------------------------  
pub 1024D/32j38dk2 2001-06-20 you &lt;you example com&gt;  sub 1024g/289sklj3 2011-06-20 [expires: 
2012-11-14]</code></p>
-<p>GPG creates one list, or keyring, for your public keys and one for your private keys. All the public keys 
you know are stored in the file <file>~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg</file>. If you want to give other people your key, 
send them that file.</p>
-<p>If you want, you can upload your keys to a key server:</p>
-<steps>
-<item><p>Check your public key ID with <code>gpg --list-keys</code>. It is the string after 
<code>1024D</code> on the line beginning with <code>pub</code>. In the example above, it is 
<code>32j38dk2</code>.</p></item>
-<item><p>Enter the command <cmd>gpg --send-keys --keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net 32j38dk2</cmd>. Substitute your 
key ID for <code>32j38dk2</code>. You need your password to do this.</p></item>
-</steps>
-
-<p>Key servers store your public keys for you so that your friends can decrypt your messages. If you choose 
not to use a key server, you can manually send your public key, include it in your signature file, or put it 
on your own Web page. However, it is easier to publish a key once, and then let people download it from a 
central place when they want.</p>
-<p>If you don't have a key to unlock or encrypt a message, you can set your encryption tool to look it up 
automatically. If it cannot find the key, an error message appears.</p>
