Ah. Yes, now I see it. I think my mistake was that I searched for gpg
not gnupg :( My bad.
Is there anything that should make me consider 1.4.7 before 2.x? I am
looking for something as lean as possible since there are very limited
resources on the target system. Also, 1.4.13 seems to be considered
current stable. I guess OE is lagging behind somewhat on this package?
