In trying to debug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd/+bug/1536871/comments/16 there has been the discovery that gpgme doesn't actually verify the version of gnupg on the system and sends arguments to it that are only supported in Gnupg 2.1.

This causes problems because the error doesn't populate up to apps as an import failure but rather a silent pass with no results.
