I did that also and the following struck me as odd: I've got 2 machines and installed the SuSE 1.0.6 rpm on both, so I needed to export my secret keys from machine 1 in order to use them on machine 2. But GPG never asked me for a passphrase during these actions. So I could simply export my secret keys and import them on my other machine, no questions asked.
