There's an option missing that could cause data loss in its absence: $ gpg --armor --export > pub.asc
I'd make that: $ gpg --armor --export-options export-local-sigs --export >pub.asc If you have made any signatures that are not exportable (so lsign and friends), they would not be exported otherwise. That is obviously what it is for, but if you do this to make a backup of your own keyring, you would still want to keep those. And symmetrically, you'll want $ gpg --import-options import-local-sigs --import pub.asc HTH, Peter. -- I use the GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) in combination with Enigmail.
