Interesting! my pubring.kbx is 147MiB, but GnuPG still should not run forever when doing --list-keys. It takes 17s to complete the listing of my pubring.kbx, as measured by "time gpg --list-keys > /dev/null" gpg should not take forever to list a 20MB keyring. If you still have a copy of the corrupt 20M pubring.gpg, it might be interesting to see it as an example, because it sounds like it's tickling a bug. however, sharing your keyring might be sensitive, and 20MB certainly won't fit in a message on this mailing list. If you are willing to share it privately so this can be tracked down, feel free to reply to me privately and we can figure out the details. --dkg
