importprivkey is broken

[LZ]

Electrum 2.2 and below:

Code:

>> importprivkey('5KdQmGoY4m2HK1WBLyRJ64hftfciGVtcDYvFD3ZrMVoyQGM1CBF')
[
    "Keypair imported: ", 
    "1LZqQu8NBB7og3J2msoguAFK5pza4RMedi"
]
>> importprivkey('KzTrstZavueRFvCS7MT9QXLGCLP9KrT3J4pmKJfaYukS6AvsWhWN')
[
    "Keypair imported: ", 
    "1LZraDqavRX2UtsrcVG5s62b8w58ZckoxM"
]

Electrum 2.3 and above:

Code:

>> importprivkey('5KdQmGoY4m2HK1WBLyRJ64hftfciGVtcDYvFD3ZrMVoyQGM1CBF')
"Error: Keypair import failed: "
>> importprivkey('KzTrstZavueRFvCS7MT9QXLGCLP9KrT3J4pmKJfaYukS6AvsWhWN')
"Error: Keypair import failed: "

But if I restore the wallet using my private keys, importprivkey() works without problems.
It does not work only in the seed mode. Behavior of Electrum 2.2 seems more suitable.

That's right. But I have not upgraded Electrum from 1.x to 2.x on this system. It's a clean installation.
I just want to say that Electrum 2.0-2.2 is able to import my private keys to the standard-type wallet
and Electrum 2.3-2.3.2 is not able to do so. I have to use 2.2 or switch between different wallets.

ThomasV said that it's designed to work this way.
