I hadn't noticed that yet, thanks for that.

I don't recall if any of the tools are more useful than the others but
playing around just now I see only minor differences. I'd suggest
prioritising supporting gpg because that is more likely to be already
installed on more systems than pgpdump is. The hopenpgp-tools package
is more obscure and less likely to be installed as it is Haskell so
might not be available on some platforms that gpg/pgpdump are and it
also seems a bit less capable than gpg/pgpdump so maybe ignore it.
