While writing integration tests for the Rust sigul client, I hit this sigul bug. Attempting to create a new key of type RSA fails on the server with:

[sigul-server] | Traceback (most recent call last):
[sigul-server] |   File "/usr/share/sigul/server.py", line 2815, in request_handling_child
[sigul-server] |     handler.handler(db, conn)

[sigul-server] | TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'

It looks like we're passing a string to an API that requires an integer.

I'm inclined to not bother fixing this in Sigul unless it's actively used by Fedora infra. @kevin, is this used currently? GPG and ECC key creation works, just RSA is broken.

Yeah, I don't think we do rsa keys any...
