If you can produce a sample keyring that exhibits the disappearing key

It seems to me that the loop nesting just needs to be reversed.
It seems like the way GnuPG works is that it has a list of session keys,
and a list of private keys. It then iterates through the list of
session keys and tries to see if any private key matches. This makes it
so that if the session
I received a request to add support for --textmode to GPGee and did so.
I'm about to release a new version and am updating the help file, and I
find that I don't have a clear understanding myself of exactly what

Does this mean that personal-digest-preferences and/or a key's digest
preferences doesn't dictate what digest algorithm is used for
self-signatures? If this is the case, it see
The most important thing in making archival CD backups is the dye, not

The best dyes to use are phthalocyanine and metal stabilized cyanine.

There isn't any software that I know of to brute-force a GnuPG password.
You could probably whip up something quick and dirty using GnuPG's
The good news is that Werner is very serious about good Windows support
for GnuPG. He has started the gpg4win project to collect together all
the Windows front ends and plugins under one installer. The bad news is
that this is a work in progress.

I am still getting used to working with the OpenPGP smartcards, and I

1) Is it possible to erase one? For example, if a set of three keys has

I have solved my own problem. If the gpg.conf has a setting for
personal-digest-preferences, and if an algo that is supported by a

For example, my gpg.conf setting was:

I am contemplating a change to my GnuPG Explorer Extension, but I need
some background information.
I know that encrypting a file without signing it is commonly done with
symmetrical encryption. My question is, do people commonly use GnuPG to
encrypt a file without signing it using PK-encryption?
