Elgamal Keys

[Achim16]

Good evening,

is there any reason why gpgfrontend does not support Elgamal (non-EC) in Keypair (DSA/Elgamal) nor Subykey ?

Thanks

That's a case I didn't discover.
Maybe you can import these keys (if gnupg supports them) but ,unfortunately, can not generate a new one with GpgFrontend for now.

I'll learn this case and try adding on the support of Elgamal.

Thanks. GnuPG 2 definitely supports Elgamal, see option 2 on --full-generate-key.
(Sub)Keys are to my view also correctly imported and shown in GPGFrontend (Algorithm ELG-E, algorith detail eg ELG20248).
So it seems that only key generation is affected
