I have a strange problem with seahorse not working on only one of two

working but Thunderbird enigmail detects the agent running, Enigmail
doesn't work either.)
I work with ssh-agent using ssh-add from the command line: ssh-add
key0 key1 key2 to activate keys (sometimes with -t to set a time
limit), and ssh-add -d key1 or ssh-add -D to deactivate them.
Is there a similar way to work with gpg-agent?

It just exists. If you want a list of all keywords that GnuPG

Isn't that an undocumented option too? I've just tried gpg --help

Should I be confident about using gpg's return code 0 in a script (run
automatically by at or cron) to make encrypted backups? Example:

It applies to the master key only. You do not need to generate a new
revocation certificate. Revoking the master key takes out all UIDs
and subkeys in one step.
That's what I suspected.

When I created my keypair I dutifully created and safely stored a
revocation certificate for it.
I recently added a new subkey and revoked the old subkey (as discussed
on this list). I've also added and revoked a few UIDs since the key
was created.
Is there any reason to generate a new
