Bug description:
The patch from http://bugs.gnupg.org/gnupg/issue1579 is critical and
should be backported to 12.04; right now, it is not.
This leaves 12.04 users of GPG2 vulnerable to MITM attacks on gpg2
--recv-keys. See https://evil32.com/ for an example (the text that is
striked out; the gpg2 package on 12.04 is still vulnerable).
