Hello,
The patch from Ubuntu breaks other stuff. See
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgcrypt11/+bug/1013798>
and duplicates. Note that although this (LP 1013798) was fixed in
1.5.0-3ubuntu2 the patch had to be pulled again in 1.5.0-3ubuntu2.1
because of
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgcrypt11/+bug/1076906>
