Will fix.

I want to use “gpg” for most operations that deal with encryption within
emacs, but when using notmuch remotely over an ssh connection (that is
the UI and database on different machines) I need to update the keyring
on the database machine so that notmuch itself sees the key, not the
keyring on my local machine (arguably I need to update both, but hey),
so use “ssh <server> gpg” instead.

Just for key retrieval.
