Hi,
I tried migrating the public and the private key from the pgp(6.5.8) keyring to
the gpg(1.4.11) by following the below commands:
1) Tried exporting the private and the public key from pgp using the
commands:
pgp -kx " " pubkey.pgp
pgp -kx " " sec.pgp ~/.pgp/secring.skr
2) Tried importing these two keys into the gpg using the below commands:
gpg --import pubkey.pgp
gpg --allow-secret-key-import --allow-non-selfsigned-uid -import sec.pgp
3) When I tried comparing the pgp keyring with the newly created gpg
keyring (using the commands: gpg --list-key), I found that all the keys have
been migrated except two of my self-generated pgp keys.
4) When I also tried encrypting a plain text using pgp using my
self-created pgp and then decrypting this using the gpg (after migrating the
keyring as explained above), I got an error saying that gpg: decryption failed:
secret key not available, which obviously because I cannot see my own keys in
the new gpg keyring.
Please let me know if I'm missing anything here. Also do let me know if the
above problem makes any sense or if you would need any other information.
