Problem

I have a GPG-key. This key is unlimited valid. I thought recently, that this isn't the best idea. That's why my question: Can I add an expiration-date to an existant GPG-key? Or is my only option, to create a new key?

Low Risk

If you're doing this from the commandline, you can do it with :- Enter your passphrase, save the key, and you're done. You may want to reupload the key to any keyservers you've previously uploaded the key to as well.
