the file you're looking for is installed on Debian/unstable by the gnupg
package as:

   gnupg: /usr/share/doc/gnupg/DETAILS.gz

I'm closing this report as it seems to be handled already, but if you
have any suggestions for how to improve the packaging otherwise, feel
free to open another bug report.
