As a general rule of thumb [1], the chameleon (i.e., gpg-sq) exactly
emulates gpg's behavior.  As such, any differences should be fixed
upstream rather than worked around by downstreams.

The good news is that this problem is already known:

  https://gitlab.com/sequoia-pgp/sequoia-chameleon-gnupg/-/issues/68

And the fix was released with version 0.9, which was released on May
7th, and should come to Debian soon.

Thanks,

:) Neal
