Description
I generated a keypair from the website and then imported that keypair into my gpg keyring on linux because I sign my emails with it.
The password provided with this keypair was the same I use to login into keybase and I decided to change it using gpg command line, all went well, but is there a way to import this new private key into keybase? My understanding is that only the private key changed and I don't need to change the public key on keybase.
Regards.

Research direction
The report mentions a keypair generated on the website, a Linux GPG keyring, and a changed private-key password, but no repository files, tests, or entry point. First clarify whether importing the changed private key is supported and define the expected Keybase behavior; done would require a documented answer or a reproducible implementation scope.
