[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#1024417: kgpg FTBFS: Did not find GPGME

Source: kgpg

Severity: serious

kgpg fails to build from source in unstable. The relevant portion is:

| -- No usable gpgme flavors found.
| CMake Error at cmake/FindGpgme.cmake:367 (message):
|   Did not find GPGME
| Call Stack (most recent call first):
|   CMakeLists.txt:61 (find_package)
| 
| 
| -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I think this is due to gpgme having dropped its gpgme-config tool in
favour of providing a .pc file. I think the change is good in principle,
but the transition is executed in a bad way. gpgme-config was always
difficult for cross compilation while .pc just works.

In any case, this puts kgpg into a difficult spot. I hope you can deal
with it somehow. I've put the gpgme maintainers in the loop for
assistance.
