Thanks for your reply.

I'm aware that OTR but that isn't a replacement for gpg. The
lack of digital signatures is a non-starter for many organizations.

I would prefer to keep this bug open, possibly downgrading to
wishlist. There is no reason not to bundle both gpg and otr
together. Further, removing gpg during an upgrade is a significant
problem. I for one will not be upgrading to kde4 for this reason.
