Sorry, I don't known GnuPG-Pack.

Better use GnuPG-2 which uses a values suitable for the machines on
which you generated the key or change the passphrase. (i.e. 100ms)

Why?  I doubt that those who suggest that have a lot of experience in
selecting algorithms.

Okay, if you feel that your old GnuPG version benefits from this.

> digest-algo SHA256

May break compatibility because it overrides the preference system.

Do what ever you like here.  But why preferring ZLIB over BZIP2?
