Synopsis: gnupg needs setuid-bit on Linux

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: maya%NetBSD.org@localhost
State-Changed-When: Tue, 19 Jun 2018 11:29:53 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
wontfix. setuid root is needed for linux 2.4.x apparently (according to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=453122). making it setuid root for what is now an extremely unlikely use case (someone sitll using very old linux 2.4.x) is probably a bad idea.
