Warning Messages

When executing GnuPG commands, you will probably see the message:

gpg: Warning: using insecure memory!

This warning is because non-root users can not lock memory pages. If users could lock memory pages, they could perform out-of-memory denial of service attacks; thus, it is a possible security problem. For details, refer to http://www.gnupg.org/faq.html#q6.1.

If you upgraded from a previous version of GnuPG, you might see the message:

gpg: WARNING: --honor-http-proxy is a deprecated option.
gpg: please use "--keyserver-options honor-http-proxy" instead

This warning is because your ~/.gnupg/options file contains the line:

honor-http-proxy

Version 1.0.7 prefers a different syntax. Change the line to the following:

keyserver-options honor-http-proxy
