Actually "Kl\xf6\x63ker" is what you get when you list a key which was=20
generated with PGP since PGP doesn't encode non-ASCII characters with=20
the utf-8 encoding (which is a must according to the OpenPGP specs).=20
Instead PGP simply uses latin1.

And JFYI, the first key above is not my key. It belongs to a name-clone.=20
The second key is my old key and shouldn't be used anymore.

To get the keys I currently use try 'gpg --search-keys ingo.kloecker'.

Ingo
