Description:
------------
The PGP Key link on the PEAR user page -- http://pear.php.net/user/danielc for example -- goes to keyserver.bu.edu.  But that server hasn't been responding for the past few days, pearhaps longer.

Might want to change it to pgp.mit.edu.

OLD:
http://keyserver.bu.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=8FFE1FFC&op=get

SUGGESTION:
http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x8FFE1FFC

Thanks.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net.

In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.

When making the change, it seems you overlooked the "0x" prefixing the key ID in the "search" attribute.  Without it, the search fails.

Re the "0x"...

mj, I see in your profile you put your key id as "0x331AAC30."  In my profile I put "8FFE1FFC."  Seems some standardization is needed.

I feel the data stored in the profile itself should not contain a 0x prefix because the IDs produced by say "gpg --fingerprint" don't include the "0x."

Suggestions:
* Put the "0x" in the link on account-info.php
* UPDATE table SET pgpkeyid=right(pgpkeyid, 8) WHERE pgpkeyid like '0x%';
* In account-edit.php, do something like preg_replace('/^0x([A-F0-9]+)$/', \\1, $pgpkeyid)

Or, of course, do the opposite. :)

Good catch!

I finally fixed the script in the way you suggested and updated the database table correspondingly.
