It is really a bug. Thanks for reporting. GnuPG will continue to support this batched key generation, I recently extended it with a key flags parameter so that you willbe abletocreate a sign+encrypt RSA key which is not possible through the regular interface. -- Werner Koch Omnis enim res, quae dando non deficit, dum habetur g10 Code GmbH et non datur, nondum habetur, quomodo habenda est.
