It is actually done on purpose to limit the set of required algorithms.
AES-192 has no real purpose and thus it should be avoided.
I would prefer to change this in app-openpgp.c instead. In any case we
should use a shared code for the OpenPGP fingerprint computation. I am
currently working on v5 keys and this will require more changes anyway.
