-[[meta title="revoke-hostname function revokes wrong hostname user ID"]]
-
-It appears that the monkeysphere-server revoke-hostname function will
-occasionaly revoke the wrong hostname. I say occasionally, but it
-seems to be doing it pretty consistently for me at the moment:
-
- servo:~ 0$ sudo monkeysphere-server n- servo.finestructure.net
- The following host key user ID will be revoked:
- ssh://servo.finestructure.net
- Are you sure you would like to revoke this user ID? (y/N) y

- NOTE: User ID revoked, but revokation not published.
- Run 'monkeysphere-server publish-key' to publish the revocation.

-Clearly this is unacceptable. Because of more inadequacies in gpg,
-you can't specify a uid to revoke from the command line. The uid
-revokation requires an edit-key script, which we have used before, but
-you have to specify by "number" which uid to revoke. We currently try
-to guess the number from the ordering of the output of list-key. This
-however is not always accurate. I don't have a good solution for a
-fix at the moment. Suggestions are most welcome. It may just require
-some trial and error with edit-key to come up with something workable.
-
-This underlines the problem that gpg sucks ass as a tool for
-manipulating gpg keyrings non-interactively. This is a big problem.
-We need something better that we can use. I would gladly rewrite
-everything if there was a better tool out there, but I don't know of
-one.
