Should not be a problem for Debian ;-)

I have recently started to merge newpg with gnupg and thus I hesitate
to do any change before this has been finished[1].  If you want to
track this, use the GNUPG-1-9-BRANCH from the GnuPG CVS.

OTOH, it should be easy to create a new package from newpg which just
contains the gpg-agent and eben this beast can be be stripped down
because for PGP it is only used for caching purposes (no need for
libgcrypt).  Maybe a package with the gpg-agent and one of the
pin-entries makes sense.
