Not especially. Subkeys don't exist in isolation. They only exist as
part of a larger key.
Your customer's request doesn't appear to be particularly well-phrased.
That's going to limit any help anyone on the list can provide.
"By itself" meaning a key without any other subkey. They want us to
generate a new public key with only one subkey, and that at 2048-bit
instead of 1024. I suppose we could also make a copy of our existing
public key, then delete the 1024-bit subkey (keeping the 2048-bit
subkey we recently added), but I'm hoping there's a command line
argument/flag for GPG to encrypt a file using a public key with two
subkeys, specifying the 2048-bit subkey and ignoring the 1024-bit
subkey.
Thanks,
Frank
