discuss those details.
Ultimately, it woul

if, by selection, you mean to choose that cipher as the one
protecting your secret key, then yes
use the following options:

Hi,
Im not good in C and algorithms, so I have a question.
A recipient cannot decrypt my gpgsm signed and encrypted data. He sent me some
data he can decrypt. It looks like this:
121:d=5 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SEQUENCE
123:d=6 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT:rsaEncryption
134
