For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.5-2+squeeze1. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.5.0-5+deb7u1. For the testing distribution (jessie) and unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.5.3-1. We recommend that you upgrade your libgcrypt11 packages.
