Hello,

after trying to import my old PGP 2.6.3 key in GPG, I had to discover that
my GPG secret key had lost it's User ID (so that I can't sign with it in
most applications):

joerg@norad:~/.gnupg > gpg --list-secret-key
/home/joerg/.gnupg/secring.gpg
------------------------------
sec 1024D/68FBD67F 2000-01-18
ssb 1024g/CB70CD4D 2000-01-18

However the public key has still its UID:

/home/joerg/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
------------------------------
pub 1024D/68FBD67F 2000-01-18 Joerg Ziefle <joerg.ziefle@gmx.de>
sub 1024g/CB70CD4D 2000-01-18

Is there a way to recover the secret key, that means to edit the secret
key to get back its User ID?

Many thanks in advance,

Joerg
