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:
Version 1.0.7 prefers a different syntax. Change the line to the
following:
keyserver-options honor-http-proxy |
