Thanks for reporting the problem. As I understand it, the intent was to require GnuPG 2.1.6 or later, or GnuPG 1.4.3 or later within the GnuPG 1 series. However, previous versions of Emacs mistakenly allowed 1.4.3 or later. Fixing the bug caused the issue that you reported.

I installed the attached patch to etc/NEWS in the emacs-27 branch to try to make this clearer, and am boldly closing the bug report. Just in case, I am cc'ing to people who know more about this than I do, in case the patch wording isn't correct.
