Please unblock package gnupg2 Being fully aware about the signifiance of the gnupg2 package and the advanced progress of the bullseye release, I am asking to unblock gnupg2/2.2.27-2. As there are no changes to the code, just a documentation update, there shouldn't be any risk of introducing regressions. [ Reason ] Document the fact the gnupg suite no longer reads a configuration file at "~/.gnupg/options". This fixes Debian bug is <https://bugs.debian.org/985158>. Related, mentioning this in the release notes has been requested in <https://bugs.debian.org/987440>. [ Impact ] Without that information, users have less chance to learn about that change, and might more likely experience regressions or breakage in their GnuPG-based workflows. [ Risks ] There shouldn't be any risks as no code was changed. [ Checklist ] [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog (did not mention I'd added myself to uploaders, though) [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them (TBH, they were done by yours truly) [X] attach debdiff against the package in testing unblock gnupg2/2.2.27-2
