Hi together,

On the annual conference 39C3, a few PGP-related security bugs were found, many 
of which are bugs in gnupg2 [1].

The gnupg2 package has not seen an update from its maintainer for >6 months 
[2], even though lots [3] of updates with lots of security relevant bug fixes 
have been released. The-new-hotness's update reminders turned into a monologue 
[4]. Some of the open bugs [5] are remote code execution bugs.

PS: I know that this is a public mailing list, and am posting on a public 
mailing list, since all the information mentioned here is public.

Is it possible that gnupg is unmaintained? This would pose a high security risk 
to the Fedora project.
