Comment:

 When used with gpg >= 2.1, the `tools/keyring/drop-expired-sub-keys`
 script will convert the keyring format to the keybox format, which is only
 compatible with gpg >= 2.1.

 I think we should update the script to keep the keyring in the old format,
 to keep compatibility with older versions of gpg.
