gpg keys
A problem recurrently happens on my computer :
I have 2 public keyrings :
one is ~/.gnupg/public.pgp
the other is /usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.pgp which was installed by debian-keyring package.
When someone send me a signed message, the signature, if it's not on my keyring, can't be verified :
gpg: Signature faite mar 03 oct 2000 15:08:34 CEST avec une clé DSA ID 2C447AFC
gpg: requête de la clé 2C447AFC de wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net...
gpg: failed to create temporary file
+`/usr/share/keyrings/.#lk0x80dddc8.yocto.eric.ath.cx.1865': Permission denied.
gpg: fatal: can't allocate lock for `/usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.pgp'
secmem usage: 1408/1408 bytes in 2/2 blocks of pool 1408/16384
I wonder why gpg wants to create its temp file in /usr/share/keyrings where I have no access, while this could be done in ~/.gnupg.
Should I file a big against that ?
Please, Cc me.

Please don't send proprietary format documents, I can't (and don't want to) open them.
Appreciated are open-source formats like .txt or .rtf. Dvi, ps or tex files are welcome.
