Hi all,

I've installed Gpg4win 2.2.2-beta37 and just discovered that maybe the gpg.conf parameters aren't used anymore:

gpg.conf:

###+++--- GPGConf ---+++###
utf8-strings
keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net
###+++--- GPGConf ---+++### 07/15/12 13:47:30 Mitteleuropäische Sommerzeit
# GPGConf edited this configuration file.
# It will disable options before this marked block, but it will
# never change anything below these lines.
utf8-strings
keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net

personal-digest-preferences   SHA512
cert-digest-algo              SHA512
default-preference-list       SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 SHA224 AES256 AES192 AES CAST5 ZLIB BZIP2 ZIP Uncompressed


command line output:

C:\temp>gpg --version

AFAIR, these options were used (and printed) correctly in one of the previous versions.
Could anyone more experienced please either confirm this problem or clarify the misunderstanding?

Thanks and regards
 Florian
