Package: gnupg Version: 1.4.9-4 Severity: normal It seems that neither : $ gpg --gen-key --secret-keyring /media/whatever/.gnupg-secret/secring.gpg nor $ gpg --secret-keyring /media/whatever/.gnupg-secret/secring.gpg --gen-key
allow to generate the new secret key in another keyring than ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg Maybe --secret-keyring is only for other commands ? To me this looks like a bug. Hope this helps.
