Benjamin Bentmann closed MGPG-29.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix
      Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann

I dislike the idea of allowing arbitrary command line options to be passed in as this complicates the plugin's logic to interpret/validate the options, making it hard for future plugin versions to use non-CLI based means like a pure Java library to do the processing.

In MGPG-30, I added however the options required to support the concrete use case you mentioned here, i.e. using alternative keyrings.

> It would sometimes be useful to be able to pass additional command-line options to the gpg executable.
> For example, if the secret key is stored on a removable medium the --secret-key option is needed.
> Changing the home directory to the removable medium can cause problems with the gpg2 agent.
> There may be other options that are needed on occasion.
