On Fedora 21, /usr/bin/gpg2 is installed by the package for version 2.x.x (gnupg2-2.0.25-2) and /usr/bin/gpg is installed by the package for version 1.x.x (gnupg-1.4.18-4). I would not expect to use /usr/bin/gpg when I installed gnupg2, because that only comes with /usr/bin/gpg2. I happen to have both installed on my Fedora system. I do not think that we should override upstream's decision to call these executables by a different name. ~~ Ricardo
