Hi,
gpg (1.4.1) always asks whether UID certifications should expire on the
same day as the primary key:
| weasel at galaxy:~$ gpg --no-ask-cert-expire --sign-key 52C8180E
| [..]
| pub 1024D/52C8180E created: 2004-12-11 expires: 2012-12-10 usage: CS
| trust: marginal validity: full
| Primary key fingerprint: 77FA 0CBE A7BB 268A 312B DB25 3D45 FF99 52C8 180E
|

|
| This key is due to expire on 2012-12-10.
| Do you want your signature to expire at the same time? (Y/n)
I always answer no to this question.
Is it possible to change the behaviour of --no-ask-cert-expire to also
apply to this case? At least the manpage suggests that it already should do
just that:
| --no-ask-cert-expire
| When making a key signature, prompt for an expiration time.
| If this option is not specified, the expiration time is
| "never". --no-ask-cert-expire disables this option.
