Hi!

Today I experienced this while ^C-ing gnupg --refresh-keys:
~/.gnupg/pubkey.gpg was empty and ~/.gnupg/pupkey.gpg~ contained a valid
and current (i.e. containing the already refreshed keys) copy of my
public key ring.

This seems to only happen if gnupg had modified the keyring immediately
before the interrupt.

Strangly enough, the responsible function rename_tmp_file from
g10/keyring.c seems to do the Right Thing:

        remove pubkey.gpg~
        rename pubkey.gpg.tmp pubkey.gpg
        chmod pubkey.gpg


Regards, David
