+## WARNING: old (pre-0.9.2) example.dup used to give wrong information about
+##          the way the following options are used. Please read ahead
+##          carefully.
+##
+## If the encryptkey variable is set:
+##   - data is encrypted with the GnuPG public key specified by the encryptkey
+##     variable
+##   - if signing is enabled, the password variable is used to unlock the GnuPG
+##     private key used for signing; else, you do not need to set the password
+##     variable
+## If the encryptkey option is not set:
+##   - data signing is not possible
+##   - the password variable is used to encrypt the data with symmetric
+##     encryption: no GnuPG key pair is needed
 
 [gpg]
 
-# passphrase needed to unlock the GnuPG key
-# NB: do not quote it, and it should not contain any quote
-password = a_very_complicated_passphrase
-
+# when set to yes, encryptkey variable must be set bellow; if you want to use
+# two different keys for encryption and signing, you must also set the signkey
+# variable bellow.
 # default is no, for backward compatibility with backupninja <= 0.5.
-# when set to yes, either signkey or encryptkey option must be set below.
 sign = yes
 
-# key ID used for data encryption.
-# if not set, local root's default GnuPG key is used.
+# ID of the GnuPG public key used for data encryption.
+# if not set, symmetric encryption is used, and data signing is not possible.
