Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.18-7ubuntu1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/gpg-zip
Tags: patch

Hi,

It appears that the --gpg option to gpg-zip does not work as
intended. The documentation indicates that this option can be used to
use a different gpg utility, but the implementation seems
defect. Instead of setting the option argument, it assigns "--gpg",
which is hardly disired.

My usecase is using a private encryption subkey on a yubikey, and I
didn't get it to work with gnupg 1.4. It does work fine with gpg2.

My test case is gpg-zip --list-archive --gpg gpg2 .../test.gpgzip

Please find a patch that fixes the issue is attached.

Reinhard
