gpg searches for its configurarion file in this order (I use 1.4.23 as
example):

  gpg.conf-1.4.23
  gpg.conf-1.4
  gpg.conf-1
  gpg.conf

The first existing one is used.  This allows to have separate
configuration files for different gpg versions.  But take care, the GUI
configuration dialogs parse and modify only gpg.conf.


Shalom-Salam,
