[NTLUG:Discuss] gpg question

[Fred James]

All
I opened a root console on my Mageia2 KDE4 desktop and got a new message 
I had not seen before ... to the effect that .../gpg.conf was in an 
unsafe configuration.

I temporarily (at least) solved the problem by moving gpg.conf to 
gpg.conf.hold

I searched messages and syslog for the last 3 days but I don't see 
anything that matches gpg ... in short I am having a bit of trouble 
figuring out why the file should be there at all

Any thoughts?  Thanks
Regards
