[Bug 398790] [NEW] Seahorse embeds filename "-&25"

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: seahorse

If you decrypt files encrypted with seahorse and try to restore the embeded
file name (default behavior of PGP 7.0.3, gpg knows the option
--use-embeded-filename), you always get "-&25" als filename of the decrypted
file.

When encrypting with gpg on the command-line with the same options, the problem
does not occur.

Tested in seahorse 2.26.1 (Ubuntu 9.04)

Steps to reproduce:
1. encrypt file with seahorse
2. decrypt it with PGP 7's default settings or gpg --use-embeded-filename

Actual results:
decrypted file is always named "-&25"

Expected results:
foo.bar.pgp should be decrypted to foo.bar (or another embeded filename if
foo.bar was renamed after encryption)

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
setting an empty filename by adding 

set-filename ""

to the gpg.conf is a workaround, but an ugly one.

I also posted this as a bug in the upstream-package here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=588432
Is that the correct proceeding?
