thank you!

Maybe you want the --no-options flag?

 --no-options
    Shortcut for --options /dev/null. This option is detected before
    an attempt to open an option file.  Using this option will  also
    prevent the creation of a ‘~/.gnupg’ homedir.

I don't know about this. --keyring is still present in gpg 2.0.20, and i
don't see it going away in the master branch (which will become 2.1)
unless i'm missing something.   Hopefully Werner can speak to these plans.
