Log Message:
One more reason not to use DSA keys:

The DSA algorithm seems to require a digest value which is 20 bytes
long, which kind of implies SHA-1.

If we have a DSA signature, use SHA-1 as a hash algorithm, for backwards
compatibility. RSA signatures continue to use SHA256 by default, although
this can be given as an argument, if desired.

This fixes DSA signatures with netpgp:
