So I've spent quite some time trying to sign this code of conduct and am on the verge of abandoning it.

Got right to the sign the txt file stage https://launchpad.net/codeofconduct/1.1/+sign but now I get an error and am just tired of fighting with Ubuntu.

It has to do with the clearsign thing in the terminal.

See below

$ gpg --clearsign UbuntuCodeofConduct-1.1.txt

You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Leon Gert Marincowitz (for launchpad) <[email protected]>"
2048-bit RSA key, ID 715FBC94, created 2012-06-16

gpg: can't open `UbuntuCodeofConduct-1.1.txt': No such file or directory
gpg: UbuntuCodeofConduct-1.1.txt: clearsign failed: file open error
