You can tell how long a key is just by looking at it. You can then say anything you want. The use of particular keys is a Debian policy issue. It has nothing to do with the use of a particular message format like OpenPGP.
- julian-klode 5y agoThat's not how it works, no. This is a gpg specific issue as it does not communicate the key size over the status fd. We don't parse the keys ourselves for obvious reasons.
- upofadown 5y agoDunno about that but --with-colons certainly works to show the key length of a key.
