Leo, Ellis,

I'd like to say "use your best judgement", but you seem to be a little
too fixated on having a minimal package description (and putting
minimal effort into it).

That's uncalled for.  It's certainly not the impression I get.

For instance, when the package advertises encryption, while it is technically optional, shipping it without gpg would be a grave oversight!

Well, that depends. My own rule of thumb for ‘foo supports encryption!’ is:

 $ gpg
 bash: gpg: command not found
 $ foo --encrypt
 error: whoopsie: BUG in do_foo()+0x4f44!
 <16 lines of barftrace>
 error: warning: error: No such file or directory. (-ERROR)
 $

=> Make gpg an input, and quick.

 $ gpg
 bash: gpg: command not found
 $ foo --encrypt
 error: gpg not found, please install it.
 $

=> This is totally fine, users who want it know what to do next.

Kind regards,

T G-R
