Description

It appears that we have conflicts when GnuPT is installed. Our installer should check for this. Gpg4win already does check but the MSI does not check for it.

Is that still required wit the new gpgme global flag "inst-type"?

It seems the GnuPT Software is not maintained and the homepage does not exist any more so I'd say this is no longer required.

It says already in this text from 2006 in section 5.3 that the author plans to abandon it in favor for Gpg4win:
