Package: gnupg Version: 2.1.17-3 Severity: minor Tags: upstream gpg executes /usr/bin/gpg-agent, rather than fetching it from the PATH.
This is contrary to Debian policy. (This behaviour got in my way because I wanted to pass exciting options to gpg-agent, which involved contortions.) Please change the package to execute all its programs from PATH. Ideally upstream would change too but my experience is that upstreams often don't like this kind of change.
