Comment:

 Not so easy.  The problem is that gnupg and gnupg2 do not install any
 common paths and so they can be installed at the same time.  I think this
 is true for gnupg21 and gnupg although they are marked as conflicting.  Of
 course, gnupg2 and gnupg21 definitely do conflict and can't be installed
 at the same time.

 As stated above, this module can potentially work with any of these.
 However, in the case where gnupg and gnupg2/21 are installed in parallel,
 due to its order of search, the module will see and select gnupg first
 over gnupg2/21.  This doesn't seem right.

 CCing the maintainers of three 3 gnupg ports.  Comments please.
