As one of the people to object, let me repeat that you simply shouldn't copy the
random_seed file to another system, but let it create its own. I agree that
having each keyring start out with the same random_seed file is a bad situation,
which is trivially avoided. Even removing it after the copying is less work than
monkey-bashing the hex part of your keyboard in a hexeditor :).
HTH,
