batch create DSA2

Dear List,

A quick question about key generation using --batch --key-gen.

Am I right using the option --openpgp, a DSA2 key can be created just by using

Key-Type: DSA

and a key-size longer than 1024.  I.e. there is no specific Key-Type
for DSA2 keys?

Or is it the case that if DSA2 keys are enabled, even a 1024 length
key will be DSA2 (and use new hashes etc)?

Best wishes,

N
