I’ve seen some of the discussions on IRC about gpgscm.  However, it’s
not clear to me why we should make it a separate package.  AIUI, it’s
meant as a purely GnuPG-internal tool, and as such it may evolve in
lockstep with the rest of the GnuPG code base.

So I’d be tempted to keep it internal to GnuPG, unless upstream decides
to make it a separate package (which seems unlikely; it may be come part
of libgpg-error, though.)

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
