Thank you very much.
Well, the key generation part is not really Netpgp-releated, things
are done in Delta Chat using the Netpgp functions.
I think Pep does the subkey-stuff itself in some way, esp. as it seems
to be a very common task. Or Pep does not generate keys without GnuPG
- I don't know.
I also don't know who is the current maintainer of Netpgp.
But I've marked all my changes in the lib and I will see if I can
create a PR or sth. like that as soon as I have some time.
