If you want to migrate the keys from a secring.gpg again to the 2.1
secret key stoarge, you may either use

  gpg2 --batch --import secring.gpg

oops, of course that should read 

  gpg1 --export-secret-keys | gpg2 --batch --import

or you delete the .gpg-v21-migrated file and gpg2 will do it for you.
Keys which already exist won't be imported again.


Salam-Shalom,
