Hello, I was using GnuPG v1.x mostly to cipher some private files, i.e. not for mail and information exchange with other. I will now create a new key to use this for mail and move to GnuPG v2.x. I have a short question. I created (until now for test) the key like this:
$ gpg2 --version gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.6 libgcrypt 1.6.3 ... $ gpg2 --full-gen-key $ gpg2 --armor --output revoke.asc --gen-revoke guru the list keys show: $ gpg2 --list-secret-keys /home/guru/.gnupg/pubring.kbx ^^^^^^^----------------???? ----------------------------- sec dsa2048/FFEE762B922A6CBB 2015-12-22 uid [ultimate] Matthias Apitz (GnuPGv2) <g...@unixarea.de> ssb elg2048/6C7E963A56E2D675 2015-12-22 $ gpg2 --list-public-keys /home/guru/.gnupg/pubring.kbx ----------------------------- pub dsa2048/FFEE762B922A6CBB 2015-12-22 uid [ultimate] Matthias Apitz (GnuPGv2) <g...@unixarea.de> sub elg2048/6C7E963A56E2D675 2015-12-22 and I have the following files: $ find .gnupg .gnupg .gnupg/gpg.conf .gnupg/trustdb.gpg .gnupg/pubring.kbx~ .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/EF8AE0E0D3D7EBBFA6A0230CD105E0DFC04D9DE1.key .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/8FB0DD8249EC4A24E2A73B4721098FCDE815FEBB.key .gnupg/pubring.kbx .gnupg/openpgp-revocs.d .gnupg/openpgp-revocs.d/812E69DC246DB739AE84473BFFEE762B922A6CBB.rev .gnupg/S.gpg-agent .gnupg/revoke.asc Question: Why I do not have a file .gnupg/secring.kbx (as I have had with v1.x)? And, why are the keys stored in .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d?
