Nope.  It is merely that there is no alpha/libgcrypt directory anymore.

We provide signatures for all files on the ftp server.  Checking the
signatures is a far better practice than to rely on a public exposed
server and the questionable security of X.509 secured TLS connections.

The landing page is

  https://gnupg.org/related_software/libgcrypt/

which tells you the current version.

I'll change the gnu.org page to redirect to the above thing.


Salam-Shalom,
