This seems like at least partly a lintian issue. *.gpg for OpenPGP is far from uncommon, so I don't believe debian/lintian-overrides is appropriate here; lintian should know to ignore such files. For the source override we're not using the file extension, but 'file' can clearly detect the files as being OpenPGP keyrings and there's no common file extension that would suggest a text file, so again I think lintian is being over zealous here.
