gpg-agent && Debian

Hi,

From a KDE bug report:

> ------ Additional Comment #45 From Debian KDE Maintainers 2005-01-25 21:00 
> Debian is another distribution that will not be shipping GnuPG 1.9.x in our
> upcoming release, and as such does not have gpg-agent available. Our users

> For this reason, we would welcome a patch, usable with the 3.3 branch as
> well as HEAD, and ideally official but unofficial if necessary, that would

Werner, Marcus. Can you pick this up and prod Debian into shipping gpg-agent, 
even if they can't be persuaded into fixing their dependencies for kleopatra 
to point to a non-available package?
