Research direction

Start by tracing how binary_cache_secret_key_file is deprecated and how store_uri parses the suggested secret-key parameter. Reproduce the hydra.conf and hydra-queue-runner warnings with both settings, then verify the documented replacement and ensure the resulting guidance is consistent.

Description

I was using binary_cache_secret_key_file=some_file and, after upgrading Hydra, this stopped working with the message:

hydra.conf: binary_cache_secret_key_file is deprecated and ignored. use store_uri=...?secret-key= instead

I have replaced it with store_uri=auto?secret-key=some_file and it is still unhappy:

hydra-queue-runner: warning: unknown setting 'secret-key'

What is the proper replacement for binary_cache_secret_key_file=some_file?
Why does hydra print confusing messages here?
