Based on your work of tmp-ametzler-v2.4 branch, I created my own fork.

My hope is that the migration from 2.4 won't introduce (much) surprise
to Debian users.

   https://salsa.debian.org/gniibe/gnupg2/-/tree/tmp-gniibe-v2.4

This work of mine is:

    - Keep systemd support (despite its deprecation in upstream)
    - Introduce keyboxd package (with systemd support, for integrity)
    - Put backport of BEGIN_ENCRYPTION status output (from master of upstream)

It doesn't (yet) have TPM support and update to 2.4.3.

I don't insist that it's a solution.  I am in seek of a point of
possible agreement/compromise for Debian users.  The current choice
would be rather arbitrary (it's based on my use case on Debian), but I
believe that the packages will provide less surprise.
