Hi


Is there a way to get GnuPG 1.4 to use one gpg.conf file and GnuPG 2.1
to use a different gpg.conf file? (Other than state it on the command
line every time.) Under Windows XP, in case it matters.

Alternatively, can you include a line in a gpg.conf file that will be
parsed by 2.1 and not by 1.4?

What I am trying to do is use an RSA key that has an ECC signing
subkey (newer) and an RSA signing subkey (older). The idea is that if
I use GnuPG version 2.1 it will sign with both subkeys, but if I use
version 1.4 it signs with just the RSA subkey.

"local-user 0xMainKeyID" in gpg.conf gets me a signature from the RSA
subkey if using 1.4 and a signature from the ECC subkey if using 2.1.

"local-user 0xRSAsubKeyID!" gets me an RSA signature from both GnuPG
versions.

"local-user 0xECCsubKeyID!" gets me an ECC signature from 2.1 but
freezes 1.4.
