“file" should recognize the secure rings.
% file *
S.gpg-agent: socket
gpg-agent.conf: ASCII text
gpg.conf: ASCII English text
private-keys-v1.d: directory
pubring.gpg: data
pubring.gpg~: data
secring.gpg: PGP key security ring
trustdb.gpg: GPG key trust database version 3
You can try using a random file listed as data for the secure ring. Looking
for files that have your email (gpg id) in clear text will help find them. I
tend to think if the “file” command can’t recognize it, then the file is not
the secure ring or it is corrupted. You can try various files and see if you
can run any GPG utility.
