  • Sorry, had to down vote this because it seems "nonsense" when trying it out: gpg --list-signatures shows every signature of anyone I have, which totally scrolls out of my scroll history of 2000 lines and is useless. Then I tried echo 'default-key:0:"0xC155A4EEE4E527A2' | gpgconf --change-options gpg which prints gpg:OpenPGP:/usr/bin/gpg:1:1: and in no way I see a change. I don't think this did anything at all (hopefully :/). That is - I then inspected ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf and what it did was disable an existing default-key entry and adding a new one (with the wrong format). You probably Commented Dec 30, 2024 at 17:13
