We're aware of this, and we're considering how to best make a transition like this. I think the team is leaning at the moment toward a hard cutover, as sketched here: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/GnuPG/Transition We'd rather not have to diagnose problems many years into the future with different variants of gnupg acting as /usr/bin/gpg, and /etc/alternatives seems likely to prolong that particular agony. Anyway, be aware that this is on our plate as a team, but we don't have an answer for you yet. --dkg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
