Your key is stored in ~/.local/share/patatt, but you don't really need to do
anything, Kees can do the following:
b4 kr --show-keys 363b58690e907c677252467a94fe49444c80ea76.1649704381.git.christophe.leroy@xxxxxxxxxx
For now, this just provides instructions on what to do with the key:
christophe.leroy@xxxxxxxxxx: (unknown)
keytype: ed25519
pubkey: HIzTzUj91asvincQGOFx6+ZF5AoUuP9GdOtQChs7Mm0=
krpath: ed25519/csgroup.eu/christophe.leroy/20211009
fullpath: /home/user/.local/share/b4/keyring/ed25519/csgroup.eu/christophe.leroy/20211009
---
For ed25519 keys:
echo [pubkey] > [fullpath]
So, for Kees to start being aware of your key, he needs to do:
mkdir -p /home/user/.local/share/b4/keyring/ed25519/csgroup.eu/christophe.leroy
echo HIzTzUj91asvincQGOFx6+ZF5AoUuP9GdOtQChs7Mm0= > /home/user/.local/share/b4/keyring/ed25519/csgroup.eu/christophe.leroy/20211009
I know this is awkward and clunky right now. Future versions of b4 will
streamline keyring management to make it a lot easier, I promise.
