They aren't really missing but rather intentionally removed
due to legal issues on Fedora/Red Hat.  This came up not so
long ago:

With the current Fedora (36), it's possible to enable these
ciphers via '--with brainpool' when building the libgcrypt
srpm.

Hopefully the legal issues will be cleared sometime soon and
Fedora will stop stripping brainpool.

It's frustrating that the releases are signed with a cipher
that cannot be verified on a reasonably popular distro.
