Not being able to run kgpg effectively eliminates the ability to manage keys using the GUI.

For most users that eliminates the ability to work with GnuPG / PGP at all. So if they have 'upgraded' from a working system, this becomes a complete denial of service for all incoming e-mail encrypted with PGP. It also denies the ability to sign outgoing messages and thus is a complete denial of service for any destinations or activities that required signed messages.

Please at least get it working for the LTS Release 10.04.
