It's a convention that angle brackets are used to show a parameter to be substituted. So <key> indicates that you should type the key there. <> are redirects - When you used the "<" in the first case, it attempted to INPUT C2C60E279E86F10D5697782535CE0FE6C2141823 to the qubes-gpg-client command - of course, there is no such file. I know realise that you are trying to use qubes-gpg-client directly. Can you try using the wrapper script, as I suggested? qubes-gpg-client-wrapper -r alice --trusted-key <alice's key id> -e target -o target.gpg See if that works for you. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
