Thanks, wasn't aware of this.

Well, actually I've just took the license the upstream author provided
[1]. Should I clarify this with him?

I didn't set up autopkgtest, because I disabled the tests. This decision
was not an easy one, because it felt quite 'hakish'; I've spent something 
like four hours to try to find a way to make this work. I ran the tests
manually, in an environment with only gpg1 installed, and all passed. 

In the end, I've decided to disable test test _for now_, and planned 
to re-enable these "soon". But yes, maybe you're right, to fix these
first, and upload afterwards.

Thanks for your input Lunar!
Cheers,
Georg
