The GnuPG options file /used to be/ named just 'options' and lives in
~/.gnupg.
Current version of GnuPG expect configuration options to be in gpg.conf
The error is because GnuPG finds a file in its home directory named options.
Renaming 'options' to 'gpg.conf' will correct this and eliminate the
error. ( mv ~/.gnupg/{options,gpg.conf} ). But don't stop with a simple
rename, open gpg.conf and make sure those are options you really want.
I notice your return address is 'root'. This is usually not a very good
idea. It suggests that you're using the superuser account as your normal
user account. If you're doing this, then please create a normal user
account as soon as possible and start using that. It'll save you a ton
of grief in the long run.
