An enarmored key is generated by using --export -a, not by storing the unenarmored key as an enarmored file. It should be self-evident, but it's also made clear by the comment. I don't think we can be much clearer than that, you have gone to extraordinary trouble to end up with the wrong format, and we probably shouldn't tell you how to use gpg in there. -- debian developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev ubuntu core developer i speak de, en
