Add email to Keybase.io PGP Key (Public Key)

Export your public key:

keybase pgp export > keybase-public.key

Export your private key:

keybase pgp export --secret > keybase-private.key

Let's import and edit:

gpg --allow-secret-key-import --import keybase-private.key
gpg --import keybase-public.key
gpg --edit-key MYEMAIL@DOMAIN.COM

Inside the gnupg shell:

gpg> adduid
Real name: YOUR NAME
Email address: MYOTHEREMAIL@DOMAIN.COM
Comment: <just left empty, hit enter>

Out of the gnupg shell, update your keybase account with the new public key:

keybase pgp update

Check your new public key: keybase pgp export

Update your github or whatever accounts you need to recognize the new email as "verified".
