GnuPG 1.4.x and GnuPG 2.1.x are co-installable. You will not have any problems with those two installed side-by-side. The issue is that OP can't uninstall the gnupg2 package without it removing other packages (like graphical frontends for GnuPG, I suppose). So he's facing the situation that he can't install GnuPG 2.0.26 and GnuPG 2.1.4 side-by-side. If he were to install 2.1.3 from the experimental gnupg2 package, that would /replace/ 2.0.26 and satisfy the dependencies of the packages that would be removed by removing the gnupg2 package.
