Hello!

I imported my old keys (made with PGP 2.6.3I and PGP 5.0) to my GPG keyring, but GPG didnt ask me that i want to update my old keys to a new DSA key...

You can't convert a PGP 2.6 key. GPG will happily use it (within some limits, notably the IDEA cipher), but there is no way to convert it into another sort of key.

I'd recommend revoking any key that was generated with PGP 5.0. There were problems with the random number generator in that version: http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2000-09.html
