Hi all. This is a query mostly for my own interest, but I think it might point to a change in the documentation being required.
I was slightly confused by this message http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2009-May/036361.html David suggests (as I read it) that an RSA key created with --cert-digest-algo sha256 will continue to use sha256 whenever it signs keys, whereas the documentation implies that you would have to specify --cert-digest-algo every time a key is signed. How does an RSA key choose a hash algorithm for this purpose? It might also be worth noting that (if I read http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2009-May/036379.html correctly) this option does not control what DSA2 keys use. Or have I misunderstood?
