There are 2 different binaries (gpg, gpgv) which have in their usage messages the same name (gpg).

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# ls -l /usr/bin/gpg
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 979624 Jun 26 11:18 /usr/bin/gpg
# ls -l /usr/bin/gpgv
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 366276 Jun 26 11:18 /usr/bin/gpgv
# /usr/bin/gpg --help | grep -i syntax
Syntax: gpg [options] [files]
# /usr/bin/gpgv --help | grep -i syntax
Syntax: gpg [options] [files]

Actual results:
The name of the binary and the name in the usage message are different.
