Hi

I'm trying to import a key into GPG and it's refusing to because it says =
it=20
can't handle algorithm 100.  Output is below:

gpg: WARNING: --honor-http-proxy is a deprecated option.
gpg: please use "--keyserver-options honor-http-proxy" instead
gpg: armor header: Version: PGP Personal Security 7.0.3
gpg: signature packet without keyid
gpg: can't handle public key algorithm 100
gpg: pub   512R/D690C063 2001-07-11   C.G. Gardiner <cggardiner@aol.com>
gpg: key D690C063: skipped user ID 'C.G. Gardiner <cggardiner@aol.com>'
gpg: key D690C063: no valid user IDs
gpg: this may be caused by a missing self-signature
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:           w/o user IDs: 1

According to the URL below, #100 is reserved - and I cant see anything on=
 the=20
net about anyone else having seen this.=20

http://www.gnupg.org/rfc2440-9.html

As far as I'm aware the key is from a vanilla PGP 7.0.3 - but I'm looking=
 into=20
it in case there's any weird options there.

If anyone can shed any light on this it'd be appreciated :)

(oh, if it makes any odds, I'm using GPG 1.0.7 on Gentoo Linux and it say=
s it=20
supports these algorithms:

Cipher: 3DES, CAST5, BLOWFISH, AES, AES192, AES256, TWOFISH
Pubkey: RSA, RSA-E, RSA-S, ELG-E, DSA, ELG
Hash: MD5, SHA1, RIPEMD160

Cheers
