Sorry, but I strongly disagree here. This is *not* a Linux Mint only
issue. This issue happens on all custom (for example installed by
netinst with custom package set) Ubuntu systems. Basically on any system
where gnupg (along with the gnupg2 dummy package) is not preinstalled.
There are actually two problems here:

1. The torbrowser-launcher package does not depend on gnupg although gnupg is 
used by torbrowser-launcher. This is *wrong*! Since gnupg is being used by 
torbrowser-launcher, it *should* be in the torbrowser-launcher package 
dependencies.
2. The torbrowser-launcher uses /usr/bin/gpg2, however this is just a symlink 
provided by a gnupg2 package that is a "dummy transitional package".

Not fixing this issue is a really bad decision, at least in my opinion.
Please, if you do not want to add the patch to replace /usr/bin/gpg2
with /usr/bin/gpg, at least consider adding "gnupg2" as a torbrowser-
launcher dependency (instead of gnupg).
