Hello,
I created a master gpg key and an additional signing subkey. I also backed up the whole .gnupg directory to /my/save/place and deleted the primary key from the original .gnupg directory by simply removing the corresponding file under the private-keys-v1.d. So far so good, gpg2 -K shows a sec# instead of sec and gpg2 --homedir=/my/save/place -K shows sec as expected. However, if I run $ gpg2 --export-secret-keys --armor > secret-key and $ gpg2 --homedir=/my/save/place --export-secret-keys --armor > secret-key-original both commands return something of similar size. Although results are different. Could you please elaborate what exactly is returned in the former and the latter cases? What command one should run to get the private master key properly to save with paperkey afterwards? Many thanks in advance! _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
