A package which depends on or recommends gnupg still can't go into main
because gnupg isn't in main, but in non-US. Debian policy section 2.1.3:
Examples of packages which would be included in "contrib" are
* free packages which require "contrib", "non-free", or "non-US"
packages or packages which are not in our archive at all for
compilation or execution,
