Bug Description

Opening Seahorse through the Applications>Accessories>Passwords and Encryption Keys seahorse will not let users create new keys. Going to file>new>pgp key the create button is greyed out. When a user enters information the button is not activated. If the "does not expire" box is unticked the same still occurs. The issue is that a last name must be entered in the name box. I don't know if this affects some people but this may be an issue with some people.
