While the traceback is ugly, that's valid. Note 0xDEFACED isn't 8 long,
it's 7. Even though it's unlikely we'd get that key, I figured the DD
would use a UID that's valid.
It validates the key by checking the DM keyring. You can override that
check (if the keyring is out of date, etc) by using --force.
Something like:
$ dcut -O test dm --uid CACE80AE01512F9AE8AB80D61C01F443C9C93C5A --allow fluxbox
or:
$ dcut -O test dm --uid "John Stamp <jstamp@mehercule.net>" --allow fluxbox
If you'd like to fix the docs, that'd be welcome, or I can get to it
later on tonight.
