I totally agree with that.

OK, less dependencies is a valid reason. Other than that, GPG 1.4 has less
features (most notably S/MIME support) and, to be fair, I always end up running
"gpg", even though I actually meant to use "gpg2".

However, I see that Debian is still distributing GPG 1.4 alongside GPG 2 (Gentoo
for instance doesn't.)

I guess keeping GPG 1.4 is OK, as long as it's still maintained by upstream.

It would have been one less port to care about, but I won't take away completely
good programs from users, hence this poll.
