$ gpgconf --check-programs
gpg:GPG for OpenPGP:/usr/local/bin/gpg2:1:1:
gpg-agent:GPG Agent:/usr/local/bin/gpg-agent:1:1:
gpgconf: error running `/usr/local/bin/scdaemon': probably not installed
scdaemon:Smartcard Daemon:/usr/local/bin/scdaemon:0:0:
gpgsm:GPG for S/MIME:/usr/local/bin/gpgsm:1:1:
dirmngr:Directory Manager:/usr/local/bin/dirmngr:1:1:

$ gpgconf --check-options gpg
gpg:GPG for OpenPGP:/usr/local/bin/gpg2:1:1:

However, since I do not have a global gpg configuration file, what
file is it checking, if any? I assume it is not checking the
~/.gnupg.gpg.conf file, since if I try to check it manually with
gpgconf, it reports errors.
