OK, I removed the 5 keys that had 0000 fingerprints in the gpg2 listing
from my keyring and now gpg2 --list-keys works without error.  I also
checked it in enigmail and it also works here now.

Well, it looks like it does.  It was complaining about MD5
hashes/fingerprints, but I think the behavior is not user friendly :(  I
get the thing about not using MD5 anymore, but the way gpg2 works now is
that it definitely breaks things.

Debian version:

gnupg:  1.4.18-6
gnupg2: 2.0.26-4
