Dear APT Development Team,

Based on this statement I aligned /var/lib/dpkg/status and removed the 
dependency on "gnupg | gnupg2". But apt-get worked still fine for me.

Unfortunately the NEW package apt 1.2.11 depends still on "gnupg | gnupg2".
WTF?

If you think that is to intrusive to do it directly in unstable 
please provide an aligned package for experimental.
This is exactly the place where I noticed the whole topic.

Thanks in advance!

Dr. Markus Waldeck
