interesting, the depths of my ignorance continue to berevealed to
me... I'm not sure what a keyid is! But I did try this:
gpg --export "Matt Price <matt.price@utoronto.ca>" > ring.gpg -- and I
ended up with something much smaller. So maybe that's good enough.
But one thing is, I'm still not sure that the key I export is the one
I'm actually using to sign my debian packages & files. I know I've
made a number of keys inthe past (part of my wanderings in the dark)
and now I don't know which one is automatically used when I invoke
gpg. jeez, how do I figure that out?
oh, and finally -- if I figure out which key I want to export, do I
add it to the ubuntu-keyring just with
cat mykey.gpg >> ubuntu-archive-keyring ?
or will that screw with the binary file format somehow?
sorry for the ignorance. Thanks much,
matt
