Package: gnupg
Version: 2.1.17-2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

from "man gpg":
***
   Commands not specific to the function

       --version
              Print the program version and licensing information.  Note  that
              you cannot abbreviate this command.

       --help
       -h     Print  a  usage message summarizing the most useful command-line
              options.  Note that you cannot abbreviate this command.

***
But as i understand, -h is an abbrebiation of the command "--help". Thus, it
shouldn't be the sentence "Note that you cannot abbreviate this command."
