Hey Devs,

Tails is the defacto standard when security is needed especially the live
version. This distribution lives and breaths on using GPG as well you
please add the few Debian packages required to create and manage GPG Smart
Cards to generate keys while the computer is offline with no internet
access.

The packages are already in Debian and it would really help security not
having to worry about potentially contaminating the offline PC with malware
especially with the new USB vulnerabilities. I have attached an article I
found on how to add support but would kill to see this implemented in the
next release.
