[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#1071368: [gpgv] cmd-arg parse error with apt/aptitude update

[Lyndon Brown]

Package: gpgv
Version: 2.2.43-4
Severity: important

Since sometime last night I'm seeing an error as below when using `apt-
get update` or `aptitude update`. I'm guessing wrt. the earliest
affected version. I've no idea how important an issue this may be, so
cautiously marking important.

I'm running Sid. I typically update multiple times a day. I noticed
that there were gpg package updates yesterday and today and the error
message references gpgv, so I'm filing against gpgv.
