 This will make popcon silently not encrypt submissions should gpg not be
 available. That's fine if you asked popcon to encrypt submissions if possible
 (ENCRYPT=maybe?), but it should probably fail with an error if encryption is
 required explicitly (ENCRYPT=yes) and doing so is not possible for some 
 reason.

I agree with you, see
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/popcon-developers/2013-June/002321.html

In the long run the question is how much do we need to support unencrypted 
report.

Cheers,

Imagine a large red swirl here.
