HOWTO prep for migration off of SHA-1 in OpenPGP? Last week at eurocrypt, a
small group of researchers announced a fairly serious attack against the SHA-1
digest algorithm, which is used in many cryptosystems, including OpenPGP.
(one point of reference: US gov't federal agencies have been directed to cease
all reliance on SHA-1 by the end of 2010, and this directive was issued before
the latest results)
The good news is that gpg and gpg2 both support digest algorithms from the
stronger SHA-2 family: SHA512, SHA384, SHA256, and SHA224. is this already
implemented in ubuntu/launchpad?

When are we using gpg2 by default, instead of gpg?
