I tried to decrypt a message I've got from someone who uses PGP 6.5.8. 
However it failed:

- ---
gpg: cipher algorithm 1 is unknown or disabled
gpg: encrypted with 1024-bit ELG-E key, ID xxxxxxxx, created xxxx-xx-xx

gpg: public key decryption failed: unknown cipher algorithm
gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit RSA key, ID xxxxxxxx, created xxxx-xx-xx

gpg: no secret key for decryption available
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
- ---

Any ideas?
