Bug Description

Binary package hint: seahorse

Sequence:
1. Remote -> Find Remote Keys...
2. Search for a name which results in some keys being displayed
3. Select one or more keys
4. Click "Import"
5. Wait for the message "Imported keys" in the status line

Expected outcome:
* Should list the key in the "Other Keys" tab
* Should allow checking "I trust signatures from 'Name Name <email address hidden>' on other keys

Neither of these happen.

Looks like this was because of an empty (and consequently invalid) ~/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg, created in a recent shell session. Still, it should detect an invalid trust DB. See also bug #786720.
