Comment:

 Sorry, nope.

 The conflicting design is intended.

 `gnupg1` is obsolete, legacy software that is not maintained upstream any
 longer and we provide as a courtesy for users who still need to read old
 encrypted data (and hopefully never modify any data with), but it is not
 intended to be used as the system-gpg version.

 I could have removed it instead, but it has a very small useful niche, so
 I kept it. All dependencies were changed to use the newest, still
 supported version - 2.2.
