Use 0 to deselect all. in the help from commandline : key select subkey N the problem is that the N is not precise enough. One could ask 'Is that the key id ?' worse, if you enter something like key FB32E9CF it wont print out a message, it will happily display the keys, as if it was working. the correct command would be key 1 if you enter key 1A0C62FA it does the same thing, taking the first 1 only in account. here is a description i'd like in the man page key N where N is the subkey's index. e.g. if the subkey whose validity you want to extend is the first listed subkey, or if it is the only listed subkey, then the command would be Command> key 1 this will put a * after the word sub, indicating that this particular subkey has been selected. and the online help : key select subkey N (eg: key 1. the selected key will be marked with an *) thanks -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (550, 'stable'), (449, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35.4.2.6.35.4-3-ws.2010.09.14 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnupg depends on: ii dpkg 1.15.8.4 Debian package management system ii gpgv 1.4.10-4 GNU privacy guard - signature veri ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-5 Manage installed documentation in ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.5-4 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libreadline6 6.1-3 GNU readline and history libraries ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-16 userspace USB programming library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnupg recommends: pn gnupg-curl <none> (no description available) ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.23-4 OpenLDAP libraries Versions of packages gnupg suggests: pn gnupg-doc <none> (no description available) ii imagemagick 8:6.6.0.4-2.2 image manipulation programs ii libpcsclite1 1.5.5-3 Middleware to access a smart card -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
