Kind of yes (concerning renaming the file), kind of no :-) The list of
the keys (which was what I asked for) was returned normally.

No, that's not possible, there is no pubring.bak file in the directory.
Instead, there's a file pubring.tmp. I have also double checked the
permissions, and all is as it should be. By the way, I'm not the only
one to have noticed this bug. Some Enigmail users tell me about the same
issue.
