To clarify: in my COPR, it's use-at-your-own-risk. If we moved it to
Rawhide, I'm on the hook to make sure it's constantly kept up-to-date
and keep track of vulnerabilities. I'm not prepared to take that level
of ownership on. I only built this COPR because I was updating to
Rawhide today and this bit me. I'm being nice and sharing it, with the
expectation that it's really only meant for this singular use-case,
which should be obsoleted as soon as Google moves to the newer
libgcrypt (or bundles their own, whatever).
