Package:gnupg2 Version: 2.2.43-5 Severity: important (Sharing on debian-devel as gnupg2 is a core package and this breaks hundreds of reverse dependencies)
Latest gnupg2 in Debian Sid cannot be installed. This also prevents all packages that depend on gpg to be installed as well. Personally I noticed this via devscripts installation failing: root@d3f13440934b:/tmp/test# apt update && apt install -y devscripts --no-install-recommends Get:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid InRelease [198 kB] Get:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages [9876 kB] Fetched 10.1 MB in 5s (2205 kB/s) 35 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them. Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: Unsatisfied dependencies: devscripts : Depends: gnupg but it is not installable or gnupg2 but it is not installable Error: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. root@d3f13440934b:/tmp/test# apt update && apt install -y gnupg2 --no-install-recommends Hit:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid InRelease 35 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them. Package gnupg2 is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: gpgv Error: Package 'gnupg2' has no installation candidate root@d3f13440934b:/tmp/test# apt update && apt install -y gnupg --no-install-recommends Hit:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid InRelease 35 packages can be upgraded.

Thanks!
