Bug Description

Binary package hint: seahorse

seahorse must ask for typing the new password a second one when changing the passphrase to avoid miss-typings!

Any progress on this bug? I accidentally hit this issue and I indeed mistyped my passphrase while changing it. Luckily I was able to guess the typo I made...

Also, the dialog for entering the existing passphrase before changing it does not make clear which passphrase I should enter. If it's asking for my current GPG passphrase, it should say so. Currently it says "Enter passphrase for 'John Doe <email address hidden>'". It should say "Enter GPG passphrase ..."

Seahorse now asks for confirmation, so I'm closing this report.
