I also have this issue on Ubuntu 9.10 AMD64.

It occurs here each time.

Seahorse -> File -> New -> PGP Key. I fill in everything and keep the default options.
Then I have to wait for several minutes while a popup windows "key generation / primegen" is displayed. Then I get the "General error" message.

I still have the ownership over pubring.gpg, and never used gksudo to launch Seahorse.

What may I do to help investigate this bug ?

Cheers !
