(all tested on 2.0.30 tarball)
NEWS has:
Noteworthy changes in version 2.0.19 (2012-03-27)
- GPG now accepts a space separated fingerprint as a user ID. This allows to copy and paste the fingerprint from the key listing.
(though not advertised in doc/specify-user-id.texi)
it does not work as expected:
LANG=C GNUPGHOME=/tmp/gnupghome/ ./gpg2 -K "5F50 3EFA C8C8 9323 D54C 2525 91B8
CD7E 1592 5678"
gpg: error reading key: No secret key
LANG=C GNUPGHOME=/tmp/gnupghome/ ./gpg2 -K "5F50 3EFA C8C8 9323 D54C 2525 91B8
CD7E 1592 5678"
gpg: error reading key: No secret key
the key is there:
LANG=C GNUPGHOME=/tmp/gnupghome/ ./gpg2 -K "91B8CD7E15925678"

Same problem noticed for Ubuntu's 2.0.22.
It works as advertised in 2.1.11.
