When I run the command:
gpg --list-secret-keys
<snip>
/home/repo-owner/.gnupg/secring.gpg
-----------------------------------
sec 2048R/XXXXXXXXX 2014-10-30 [expires: 2016-10-29]
</snip>
It shows the expiration date as: [expires: 2016-10-2.
But then when I edit the key with:
gpg --edit-key XXXXXXXXX

pub 2048R/XXXXXXXXX created: 2014-10-30 expires: 2017-10-31 usage: SC
trust: ultimate validity: ultimate
sub 2048R/XXXXXXXXX created: 2014-10-30 expires: 2017-10-31 usage: E
The keys show: expires: 2017-10-31 (which is what I expected).
I had done to extend:
# extend the expiration date on your key (Be sure to review sub keys).
$ gpg --edit-key <key id>
gpg> expire
gpg> save
# extend the expiration date on your sub key
$ gpg --edit-key <subkey id>
gpg> key <key #>
gpg> expire
gpg> save
I just want to be safe that my key expiration was updated properly.
Thank you in advance.
