When trying to generate a key in batch mode from a file, with the homedir
parameter set, the console will just list every line as "Invalid Option" and
won't generate the key.

I ran additional test.

It appears that was because the file I was trying to generate the key from was
named gpg.conf

Which still shouldn't be.

Sorry, I do not understand. Please describe exactly what you did. You need to
follow the syntax rules of the parameter file. See doc/DETAILS for a description.
