To be clear, I wasn't using the argument in favor, in fact, I support the case that alternatives aren't the right solution here either. What *I* think (mildly, not strongly) is gpg has always been gnupg(v1) and gpg2 has always been gnupg2, and I think it should stay that way... (but I'm not doing the work nor supporting these, so will defer to maintainers' discretion ultimately) -- Rex _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
