Current Arch version is LTS 2.2.32 [1].

As per the announcement [2] 2.3.4 is considered the current stable version:

	"Version 2.3 is the current stable version with a lot of new
	features compared to 2.2."

I have hazy recollections from some time back that there was a reason 
for delaying updating to current version - don't recall what exactly.

It's been a while now, and there are some nice features in 2.3.4 [3]

Also, our libgcrypt is up to date ( ignoring today's release of 1.10.1)

Any remaining reason not to update gnupg to current version?

thanks
