I guess my wording wasn't precise enough. By "gpg-related program", I
mean gpg, gpg-agent, dirmngr and scdaemon.

I don't want to expose any data in ~/.gnupg to third-party programs.
I'm just trying to segregate the different components of gpg (the tools
mentioned above) from each other; for example, as you remarked in your
previous mail, dirmngr shouldn't have access to private key material.

Regards,
Luis
