revuid seems to be non-existent; however revkey revokes a secondary key. In 
my case though I want to get rid of the old peter.schuller@noreva.se 
*primary* ID. I was under the impression this ID could not be revoked.

I just tried it now btw. It seemed to work fine, but for example kmail still 
says "message signed by peter.schuller@noreva.se". One might argue it's an 
application problem; but I'd like to just totally remove any trace of my old 
one... so AFAIK my only choice is to generate a new key.

But generating a new key from time to time isn't that bad of an idea anyway - 
it's already 3 years old.

Ok, so this should change my kmail problem. But I suspect I can't get away 
from the notion that peter.schuller@noreva.se is the primary (revoked or not).

I think I'll just re-generate my keyring.
