Bug#1020243: debian-policy: Use OpenPGP instead of PGP



Package: debian-policy
Version: 4.6.1.1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hi!

Another minor patch I had laying around, switching references to the
OpenPGP specification instead of to the specific PGP implementation.

Thanks,
Guillem

Subject: [PATCH] Use OpenPGP instead of PGP

The standard is called OpenPGP, PGP instead is a specific
implementation. And while depending on the context (such as filename
extensions) using .pgp is better and more neutral than using some
other implementation specific extension (such as .gpg), in this context
the text refers to the generic OpenPGP signatures.
