Algorithm Specific Fields for DSA secret keys

2001-03-21 16:17:35
From section 5.5.3:

|       Algorithm Specific Fields for DSA secret keys:
|
|       - MPI of DSA secret exponent x.

And that's it.

As far as I can tell, implementations do not follow the RFC (GnuPG,
for example, stores p, q, g, u, and finally x, in this order).

Has anybody got an explanation?
