and since:

-a, --all
              Query all installed packages.

---------------------------------

the wildcard is not needed for -qa.

Now, "rpm -qi gpg-pubkey" lists public keys, we agree.

Why do

gpg --list-key

gpg --list-public-keys

output nothing?

Let me guess. rpm uses gpg only for package management and has its own
"database"? Is the gpg "database" used for encrypting email or does it use
still another one?

Thanks for your help!
