Importing my keys fails

[Michael Erskine]

Hi all,

I have a pair of existing keys that I've used for ssh over the past few years 
and I'd like to use them with gnupg and gpg-enabled mailers etc. but they 
won't import for some reason: -

michael at fs1:~/.ssh$ gpg --import id_dsa
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0

My private key looks like this...

-----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,A953971238701254

<blah,blah,blah>

-----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----

...and my public key is a single line beginning "ssh-dss ". Neither of them 
will import so I'm assuming they're either incompatible with my openpgp or I 
need to cast some magic to get them to work. Here's my version...

michael at fs1:~/.ssh$ gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.3
