It doesn't work for me either. Your error message is a lot more descriptive, though. I just get: > $ gpg2 --delete-secret-keys de500b3e > gpg (GnuPG) 2.1.11; Copyright (C) 2016 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. > There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. > > gpg: key "de500b3e" not found > gpg: de500b3e: delete key failed: Not found I can delete the public key; then the secret key is not listed anymore either. When I re-import my public key, it will instantly remember the card as well, so it was there all along :). I do need to set my trust again (not a surprise). But anyway... it's usually harmless, since all it is, is a note that if you need the secret key, it is located on card X. It will then prompt you to insert card X. There is nothing secret on the disk of the computer (unless you consider the fact you use a card and its serial number as a secret). So I'd suggest you let it be if you don't consider your card and serial number a secret. HTH, Peter. -- I use the GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) in combination with Enigmail.
