We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform
some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the
disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number
generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.

You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/zhsuasp
-bash-4.1$

======================
gpg --export ${ID} > public.key
gpg --export-secret-key ${ID} > private.key
Move files to new machine, and then:

gpg --import public.key
gpg: nyckel [ID]: public key [Name, e-mail] was imported
gpg: Total number of treated keys: 1
gpg:                 imported: 1  (RSA: 1)

gpg --allow-secret-key-import private.key
sec  [?]/[ID] [Creation date] [Name, e-mail]
ssb  [?]/[SUB-ID] [Creation date]
All looks good to me, but then:

$ gpg -d [file].gpg
gpg: encrypted with 4096-bit RSA-key, id [SUB-ID], created [Creation date]
  [Name, e-mail]
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not accessible
