Hello,

The location of public keyring can be changed with "keyring" option like
this;

keyring /path/to/pubring.kbx (current)
or
keyring /path/to/pubring.gpg (legacy)

On GnuPG >= 2.3.0 with "use-keyboxd" option, new SQlite database of
public keyring "pubring.db" is located in /GnuPG-HomeDir/public-keys.d,
but it is not possible to change the location of this new file.

keyring /path/to/pubring.db (does not work)

"keyring" does not work any more with "use-keyboxd"?

That is correct. The keyboxd uses a fixed location for its database and
there may only be one. keyring has no effect as long as use-keyboxd is
active - if that option is disabled the keyring option is used again.

I understood.
Thanks for clarification.
