<div> Is there a way to determine the key length and the type of key (RSA or other) used when generating the keyring? I have a RHEL 5 box using gpg 1.4.5 where I need to determine how a key ring was generated. Even on an Ubuntu box using gpg2, the –list-secret-keys
option does not print out that information.</div>
