Upstream has indicated an intention to remove multiple keyring support in GnuPG 2.1. I can't find the reference to the explicit statement where Werner said he was going to do that, but you can see opposition on gnupg-users in the following threads: http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2011-August/042699.html http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2011-August/042725.html As you can see from the threads above, I agree that it is a bad idea. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
