Failed to import secret key #6350

Description

I am using deltachat as a secondary device for an email account where I have a long established key with multiple aliases. Until now, I've never written an email using deltachat with this account, because I'd prefer to keep the established key over a new key that only applies to one alias of this mail account. Now, I've tried to import that secret key into deltachat, so I can also write emails from my phone without worrying about a key mixup, and so I can actually read encrypted mails on the phone, and not only the unencrypted ones, however, key import failed.

  • Operating System (Linux/Mac/Windows/iOS/Android): Android 15.10.228
  • Delta Chat Version: both 1.46 and 1.50.2-foss
  • Expected behavior: should import and use key
  • Actual behavior: prints the attached error message and doesn't import key
  • Screenshots: omitted as it only prints the same error message as is visible in the below logs
  • Logs:
