Hi,

Please consider including the package/software 'gnupg2' in the grml
live CD.

It seems the only live system providing that package is knoppix' DVD
version (see reply to the quoted message on the gnupg-user list).

Thank you very much for consideration and putting together such a
fantastic system! It has helped me many times already and I stole
config parts which made my life as an admin much easier. I hope you can
keep up the good work! :)

Best regards
