I'm not sure who is maintaining asdf-install but the following patch  
improves the error message when GPG isn't installed or isn't found  
when verify-gpg-signature/string calls make-stream-from-gpg-command  
to do its stuff.	If anyone knows of a better place to post this,  
please let me know.

It just adds a condition and a check that the putative call to GPG  
returned something that looks like it came from GPG <smile>.

installed or not in the path."))))
