Had a chance to look at this yet? Also, I found some more .. stuff that strikes me as weird. My Elgamal encryption key expired over the weekend, so I was playing around a bit, trying to decide whether to just utilize the smart card keys I have or generate a new elgamal key. I don't yet fully trust the smart card setup to work the way I want, and don't have a reader everywhere. But I digress. I encrypted a (test) file to myself, to see which key it would be using by default: $ gpg -v -e -r [EMAIL PROTECTED] foo.txt gpg: using PGP trust model gpg: using subkey F40CACBA instead of primary key 51192FF2 ... gpg: RSA/AES256 encrypted for: "F40CACBA Alex L. Mauer (Jabber) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" OK, this makes sense, it's using my smart card key rather than an expired key. but then when I go to [try to] decrypt it, which I know won't work due to not having the card reader installed: $ gpg foo.txt.gpg gpg: card reader not available gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID 9150664F Huh? Yeah, it's encrypted with an RSA key, but from where did it get 9150664f?? It isn't even an RSA key! It is the key that just expired though, which may have some bearing. This is still on the same machine which displays the weird "imported smart-card keys" problem described in my initial post. -- Bad - You get pulled over for doing 90 in a school zone and you're drunk off your ass again at three in the afternoon. Worse - The cop is drunk too, and he's a mean drunk. FUCK! - A mean drunk that's actually a swarm of semi-sentient flesh-eating beetles. OpenPGP key id: 0x51192FF2 @ subkeys.pgp.net
