[pkg-gnupg-maint] Changes in GnuPG in Debian

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

hey folks--

A few days ago in experimental, i broke out gnupg-l10n from the gnupg
binary package in the gnupg2 source.

Today (also in experimental) i just uploaded a revised gnupg1 package,
with major changes: the source package is now "gnupg1", and i've
overhauled debian/rules to use modern dh style.  This change is in NEW,
and is (i think) the last change needed before we move this stuff
through to unstable.

I've just posted a blog post (markdown source attached below) about the
upcoming transition in an attempt to advertise more widely:

  https://debian-administration.org/users/dkg/weblog/116

and am considering sending it (or something like it) to
debian-devel-announce.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions, ideas, or concerns about
this transition.  A few days after gnupg1 makes it from NEW to
experimental, i hope to upload both gnupg1 and gnupg2 into unstable with
these changes intact.

      --dkg
