IMnsHO it's a bad idea to remove gnupg1 any time soon. While it
certainly should not be used for encryption, it's still needed when
dealing with older keys. Quoting the package description: "It is
provided mainly for people with the need to use archaic cryptographic
objects like PGPv3 keys to access archived messages."

So unless it's really broken or likewise RC, it should be kept.
