Thanks for the additional information, I think we now have everything
needed to make a well-informed decision!

I'm absolutely not sure what is the best thing to do now:

 1. unblock the embedded python-gnupg copy to the "current copy of
    Wheezy's python-gnupg + small change that supposedly improves
    things": take the risk to see a regression in gajim due to changes
    brought by the library update;

 2. revert the embedded python-gnupg copy update: take the risk to
    make it harder to support serious bugs or security issues that may
    be found in python-gnupg in the future.

I'm slightly lending towards #1, but not too satisfied with it,
so I'll let the Release Team make their own opinion on this matter
(not that I could do differently, anyway :)

Note that, even if this unblock is granted, gajim remains RC-buggy in
Wheezy and unstable due to the #693048 security issue.

Cheers,
