Might be. Currently we suggest such extra dependencies for keyscripts.

Still, if we would split the gnupg smartcard keyscript into an own
binary package, we would have to do the same for decrypt_gnupg,
decrypt_opensc and decrypt_ssl. Which would mean four new binary packages.

Nope, just a new binary package as part of src:cryptsetup.
