Hello,

libs/tcpd/libcouriergnutls.c contains this code ...
p->priority_list=safe_getenv(p, "TLS_PRIORITY",
                                     "NORMAL:-CTYPE-OPENPGP");
[...]
if (gnutls_priority_set_direct(ssl->session, ctx->priority_list,

i.e. it explicitely disables gnutls support for openpgp certificates.

GnuTLS stopped enabling OPENPGP certificates by default in 3.0.2 (Sept
2011). OpenPGP support in gnutls was removed in 3.6.0. (Noop stub
functions are still shipped to avoid ABI breakage.)

Therefore imho it makes sense to drop the pgp/gnutls code from courier.
