Bug Description

Searching a remote key always ends up with an empty box. Startin seahore from a terminal gives the following message als often there are remote keys matching the search string: "** Message: invalid keyid (less than 16 chars)"

gpg --search-keys <some_name> works fine and I can import a key by just enterimg the sequence number of the key. After that the new key is vissible in the remote key list.

I am running seahorse on Ubuntu 11.10 but a check with 12.04 beta gave the same result.
