after an update today dselect reports that gnupg depends on

Have you verified that this is actually the case? Just because GnuPG
depends and is linked against libusb doesn't mean that it requires USB
support to be present on the system or in the kernel.
Sorry, I should have been more precise:
(1) GnuPG "Depends:" on libusb as in dselect, and apt,
(2) /usr/bin/gpg requires lubusb-0.1.so.4 to run, see below.
So I guess that in a Debian system, by default no GnuPG tool cannot be
had without that library linked to all GnuPG programs?
(Out of couriosity, does one need the tool /usr/bin/gpg for
secured USB device handling?)
Trying standard installation (dselect won't install even when
overriding with Q):
