Re: Delete secret key without public key
Thank you very much. Exporting my public keys from my secret keyring with gpgsplit and reimporting these public keys helped me deleting it "the usual way".

It's not useless. Gnupg secret keys already include the public key and automatically extract it when only the secret key is imported. Try this: [1] export your secret key [2] re-import it Gnupg will automatically extract the public key and add it to your keyring. (hope it's not too late, and you can still do it from your keyring or a backup ;-) ) vedaal ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
