Hi, there has already been a discussion on this two years ago, see https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2013-September/047567.html
I have been following the intstructions on https://wiki.debian.org/Subkeys for some time now, with my master key only residing on my backup disk and several machines having only the subkeys. But now I somehow have the problem that only an older version of the master key is still there, so I have one keyring with the master secret key but without the most recent subkeys and another with the most recent subkeys but without the master key. Does anyone have an idea how to merge them? Using --import results in ### gpg: Total number processed: 2 gpg: unchanged: 1 gpg: secret keys read: 2 ### I also tried ### $ gpg --homedir /mnt/backup/.gnupg --expert --edit-key <keyid> gpg> addkey Please select what kind of key you want: .... (13) Existing key Your selection? 13 Enter the keygrip: <output from gpg --with-keygrip -K> No key with this keygrip ### I am not sure what the keygrip is, but I guess it is only valid within the same keyring or something? Any help is greatly appreciated. In a month or so I need to create new subkeys and I would rather not lose my current subkeys. Regards, Viktor
