Hi!

A recently recovered, that there might be a problem when you
sign a _key_ and you set an expiration date for the signature.
In most case, NO expiration date for the signature will be set!

I will prepare a new release as soon as possible which fixes problem.

As a workaround, please manually add "ask-cert-expire" in your
gpg.conf when you issue signatures that need to have an expiration date.
The next release will offer to add this option to your gpg.conf.


If you issued a signature that need to have an expiration date, the
solution is to revoke the old signature (without the expiration date!),
make sure that you have "ask-cert-expire" in your gpg.conf and repeat
the entire procedure.
