Description

Either with GPG, either with keybase, I receive the error:
keybase:
bad signature: Can't find a key for cc6a374b82820e85: No keys match the given key IDs (error 1002)

GPG:
Code: 1002
Name: SIG_CANNOT_VERIFY
Description: bad signature: Can't find a key for cc6a374b82820e85: No keys match the given key IDs

Hint: I'm using a GPG card on which there are only my subkeys.

my log id: 1692ae465ccd6049082bde1c
