Hi there, slightly off-topic, but it happened on a Debian system and maybe some of you know the answer. I just lost both my secret and public GnuPG keyrings for the second time. I've been using GnuPG along with mutt for about three month now, and today mutt complained that it couldn't find my secret key, when trying to sign a message. And, yep, `gpg --list-keys` lists only two keys, probably the most recently imported, which happens automagically with mutt. I restored my keyrings from backup, and now everything works fine, but this is the second time this has happened, and I don't really have a clue why. Actually, I didn't shut my machine down yesterday, I just hit the big red switch. However, the system had been idle for straight 6 hours except for watching TV with xawtv. I also use ext3, so I don't think that file corruption would be an issue. System: Debian Sid, 1 month since last dist-upgrade Kernel: Linux 2.4.16 Mutt: 1.3.23-4 GnuPG: 1.0.6-2 TIA, Viktor -- Viktor Rosenfeld WWW: http://www.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~rosenfel/
