Description

How to reproduce:
You need a public key with two UIDs: one valid and one revoked UID.
When importing that key and trying to immediately certify it when prompted by the import dialog window, the certification results in a general error.
Certifying it after the import from the context menu works, though.

Debugview output is short, this is from the OK to the question if you want to certify now until the error occurs:

The interactor log shows what's happening:

EditInteractor: 0 -> nextState( GET_LINE, keyedit.prompt ) -> 1
EditInteractor: action result "lsign"
EditInteractor: error now 0 (Erfolg)
EditInteractor: 1 -> nextState( GOT_IT,  ) -> 1
EditInteractor: no action executed
EditInteractor: error now 0 (Erfolg)

gpg asks what to do. Kleopatra answers "lsign".

EditInteractor: 1 -> nextState( GET_BOOL, keyedit.sign_all.okay ) -> 2
EditInteractor: action result "Y"
EditInteractor: error now 0 (Erfolg)
EditInteractor: 2 -> nextState( GOT_IT,  ) -> 2
EditInteractor: no action executed
EditInteractor: error now 0 (Erfolg)

gpg asks if all user IDs shall be signed. Kleopatra answers "Y".

EditInteractor: 2 -> nextState( (unknown), F367A0B399AFD967DD1C018E66FC6CB57BB8FD02 0 ) -> 2
EditInteractor: no action executed
EditInteractor: error now 0 (Erfolg)
EditInteractor: 2 -> nextState( GET_BOOL, sign_uid.revoke_okay ) -> 4294967295

gpg asks if the revoked user ID shall be signed. gpgme/Kleopatra doesn't expect this question. -> error

The bug doesn't occur when the normal certification process is used because there we specifically tell gpg which user IDs to sign (excluding the revoked one).
