Hi all,
I edited gpg.conf and set the parameters as like this:
default-preference-list SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 SHA224 AES256 CAMELLIA256 TWOFISH
AES192 CAMELLIA192 CAMELLIA128 AES CAST5 IDEA BZIP2 ZLIB ZIP
personal-cipher-preferences AES256 CAMELLIA256 TWOFISH
personal-digest-preferences SHA512
personal-compress-preferences BZIP2
And used 'setpref' to include those newly updated preferences to my existing
GPG Key!
I confirmed once again with 'showpref' if those preferences are set correctly.
Saved the key and quit the GPG console.
Using Kleopatra, I deleted my GPG Key and imported it from the backup. After
the importing, when I checked if those earlier preferences are retained in the
key, I got quite astonished. Those preferences are not retained. The output is
like this.

Why this happening and what is the solution to it?
I'm using Windows 7 SP1 and Gpg4win package.
Thanks,
