    [$] Fedora and GPG 2.5

    Description:
    The GNU Privacy Guard (GPG)
    project decided to break from the OpenPGP standard for email
    encryption in 2023, and instead adopted its own homegrown LibrePGP specification. The GPG 2.4
    branch, the last one to adhere to OpenPGP, will be reaching the end of
    life in mid-2026. The Fedora project is currently having a discussion
    about how that affects the distribution, its users, and what to offer
    once 2.4 is no longer receiving updates.
