The problem I am facing is: Updating go-crypto breaks go-pgpmail [5]. I

I read the github issue. It seems so.
But I am not 100% sure if it really is tests - we can only know once we decrypt
this in the test code and check back.
I am (virtually) maintaining pgp mail since the
maintainer is inactive, and pgpmail is used for aerc.
It'd be a problem if it is not just the tests.

Now a go-crypto maintainer/developer had a look at the tests [1] and confirmed that it's an issue with the tests. Maybe we could update go-crypto and just deactivate the go-pgpmail tests until upstream resolves this issue. What do you think?
