Gnupg setuid root.

Description

Reading through debian bug reports, gnupg is not required to be installed as setuid root, since the release of linux kernel-2.6.9.

Maybe this needs to be included in errata.

Milestone: 7.0 → 6.4

I changed the target milestone from 7.0 to 6.4, I think I made the same mistake in a couple other tickets, please fix them as you go. Sorry.

The command is already commented out in gnupg-2* page, and as of r7735 also in gnupg-1.4.9.

Comments can be removed in next updates or so.
