Comment (by larryv@…):
Replying to [comment:2 ionic@…]:
> We can't do this in `gnupg2` because users can have both `gnupg` and

I hadn’t considered that. I wouldn’t call that state of affairs
//unreproducible// (`gnupg` and `gnupg21` would always install `gpg` and
`gnupg2` would never do so), but it certainly could be confusing. It’s
easy for someone to understand why 1.//x// installs `gpg` and 2.//x//
installs `gpg2`; it would be harder to understand why 1.//x// and
2.1.//x// installed `gpg` but 2.0.//x// did not. I’d understand if you
wanted to close this at wontfix.
(My personal motivation is getting `keybase` working with something that
isn’t `gnupg`, but perhaps it’d be better to patch that instead of this.)
