Comment 1 Tomas Mraz 2012-03-08 14:09:06 UTC 
IDEA implementation is not part of the upstream libgcrypt release. Please report this request upstream.
Comment 2 Peter Backes 2012-03-08 15:05:39 UTC 
IDEA was pushed upstream some weeks ago, see http://git.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=libgcrypt.git;a=commitdiff;h=318fd85f377c060908d371f792d41e599b3b7483

Great, so it will automatically get into Fedora once new upstream release is done.
