Hah, I mixed things. Obviously I meant pubring, not secring, and it
should be:

gpgpubwrite:x:n:admin,test1

Because otherwise admin might be locked out when test1 updates pubring;
although I'm not sure, it depends on the exact way GnuPG will write the
file. Creating a new file and moving the old one out of the way is
already allowed through the permissions on the directory.

I'm really posting a *lot* of amendments to my mails currently, I'm
sorry about that. I'm trying to be too fast about it, I suppose.
