I was wondering how gnupg chooses a digest algorithm. I used setpref to configure my gpg key to accept sha512,sha384,... digest algorithms and set gnupg's option "personal-digest-preferences" to prefer sha512,sha384,... hashes. If I sign something and specify myself as recipient gpg2 in verbose mode reports it uses the ripemd160 algorithm.
As far as I understand the manpage gpg2 should choose sha512 not ripemd160. Does a smartcard affect the choosen algorithm. I recently started using the "crypto stick" smartcard which should be a openpgp card v2. Thanks Joke
