Linux and PGP

I'm starting to take Linux for a "test drive", and am looking for a couple
pointers on using PGP.

Some time ago, I saw a couple of vaguely-related messages regarding PGP; one
of them was editing a header file (?) to compile properly under Linux, the
other was a patch (command-line switch?) to increase the available number of
bits for the second part of the key (increasing it from 5 [!!] bits).  Could
someone either email me the info, tell me where it's hiding, or (if
necessary) tell me I'm full of fertilizer?

Thanks....

Unencrypted Email may be ignored without notice to sender.  PGP preferred.

PGP 2.6.1 should build right out of the box under Linux.  I've had
no problems with it.  No changes should need to be made.  Just

"make linux" in the PGP src directory (after making RSAREF), and it
should be fine.

As for your other question, it is in the documentation
