Oohh, this is exactly what I want in the first place! This doesn't seem to
be mentioned in the man page though. It is also limited to a single file
and it gives strange output:
--keyring <keyring> --fingerprint

rtv:1:0:

rtv:2:0:
I need the key fingerprint and I don't know what rtv is for..

Does it disable any functions? dry-run seems like a bad name to me in that
case, maybe 'read only mode' or something would be better?
-n does work, but it creates the secring and trustdb, but does not enter
anything into them:
samosa{jgg}~/keys#gpg --dry-run --no-options --batch --load-extension rsa
--keyring ./debian-keyring.pgp --keyring ./debian-keyring.gpg
--with-colons --fingerprint > t
gpg: /home/jgg/.gnupg/secring.gpg: keyring created
gpg: /home/jgg/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created
Thanks,
