Right.  We write a new file, rename the old to .bak, and then rename the
new file to the original name.  Signals at the wrong time would leave
you only with the .bak and the next time gpg starts it does not find a
keyring and creates a new one which now defaults to .kbx.

I just pushed a fix for this which blocks all signals during the
renames.  Not really tested, though.


Salam-Shalom,
