Hi Eric,

We already uploaded a gnupg update for stable and oldstable. The patches
are here:

http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-gnupg/gnupg/branches/lenny/debian/patches/101_172115_fix_keyring_memory_leak.dpatch
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-gnupg/gnupg/branches/lenny/debian/patches/101_321871_unset_noecho_on_sigint.dpatch

IMO you can use both for gnupg2 too. As the point releaes date was
announced today, you probably have to hurry up a bit, if you want to get
these issues fixed for gnupg2 in stable/oldstable too.

BTW: Would you like to join the pkg-gnupg (packaging) project at
alioth.d.o and put the packaging files of gnupg2 under (preferrably)
subversion control in our repository too? Bugs in gnupg2 usually also
occur in gnupg and vice versa. I already travelled a bit through the
list of open bugs in gnupg2 and forwarded several to upstream (where
they already got fixed). If you would like to join us, it might reduce
your and our workload.

Regards, Daniel
