Package: gpg-from-sq
Version: 0.8.0-1
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg at fifthhorseman.net>

If i install gpg-from-sq, i'd expect it to satisfy any dependency that
exists for gpg.  That means it should probably have a Provides: header.

Given that the current chameleon sources infer the behavior from GnuPG's
version 2.2.40 release, it would also probably make sense for it to be a
versioned Provides:, mapped to the version upstream uses to sort out the
interface.

This is probably a little bit more dubious than the parallel bug for
gpgv-from-sq (#1069203) because the chameleon's gpg interface doesn't
claim feature completeness, while its gpgv interface does claim it.
