It seems the developers of GnuPG are starting to diverge from the OpenPGP
standard, and go their own, incompatible way. I got notes about this from
the last few upgrades of my Debian Unstable systems, and so searching
about online led me (yet again) to the ever-dependable ArchLinux Wiki
<https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GnuPG>, which has a section on “OpenPGP
compatibility”, with links to more details about the schism.
So the Debian folks seem reluctant to go along with this, and they’re not
the only ones.
I wonder how many people is still on OpenPGP ? *BSD and
Linux both use GnuPG. Also Thunderbird rolled their own
a few years ago, AFAIK Thunderbird lets you import GnuPG
keys into their version.
