Yes, they will. What likely happened here is gpg exported public key (actually, your digital certificate along with the key material) in a slightly different way than pgp, and radix-64 encoding of the underlying binary data lead to a differently looking ascii armor. While OpenPGP implementation is exporting data in OpenPGP-conforming manner, it's no matter in what sequence it is writing the actual packets. -- SATtva | security & privacy consulting www.vladmiller.info | www.pgpru.com
