Aside from my own problems with the change, there are other reports of people upgrading to F13 only to find their GnuPG setup nonfunctional when their gnupg transformed into gnupg2: http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2010-June/038817.html > > My understanding is that someone needs to update the gnupg package and > run it through the package review process again since it was deprecated, > not just orphaned. How does this happen (i.e. who is the someone)? I'm happy to help in any way I can, but I'm not currently a Fedora contributor.

I agree. It might cause friction, but of course the status quo is causing friction for some pre-f13 people using gpg when they upgrade to f13.
