This isn't a critical issue for me, now that I'm aware of how it works.
Thanks for the suggestion, though.

as far as i can see your cmd line matches the parameters used by
duplicity as well as the duply frontend. while checking i saw tat duply
tests if te given secret is available in the keyring first, so using
duply might be an option here.

Question #681867 on Duplicity changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/681867

Status: Open => Solved

Jake Herrmann confirmed that the question is solved:
Thank you for the reply. I'm guessing the --default-key option for gpg
is responsible for this behavior. From the man page:

"If there is no secret key available for any of the specified values,
GnuPG will not emit an error message but continue as if this option
wasn't given."

I tested this with the command:

gpg --default-key foobar --sign filename.txt

and confirmed that it defaults to an existing key. I didn't actually
check whether duplicity uses gpg's --default-key option, but it seems
very likely that this is the cause. Seems like odd behavior to me, but
not duplicity's fault.

duplicity is merely using the gpg command line binary.

would you mind to test what gpg does when given a non existent key?
