Procedure:
- Create keypair on a live distro, upload public key, move secret subkeys to Yubikey
- Reboot into normal disto
- Plug in yubikey, and then remove it
- Run
gpg --recv-keys HANDLE
to receive public key - Run
gpg --list-secret-keys
.
The result is that the secret key stubs show up in the secret key list. Running gpg --delete-secret-keys HANDLE
errors, because the keys are not present (only the stubs are present).
The secret key has 100% never been on this machine, so I’m not clear on why the stubs are here. Presumably they were automatically imported from the yubikey, but it seems odd that I can’t delete them. Is this expected behaviour?
