[Remops] Attention All Echolot operators

Some of you will have noticed that your Cypherpunk stats and keyrings
are broken. Your keyrings may be empty. Your rlist*.html pages may be
blank or may only list 1 or 2 remailers. Example:

https://www.deuxpi.ca/echolot/rlist.txt

The reason for this is that you likely upgraded your server's GnuPG
version to 2.x.x and your current Echolot installation expects GnuPG
v1.4.x and therefore cannot recognize the new GPG UIDs and keyrings.

There is a fix for this. It is a fix to the file
~/echolot/Echolot/Conf.pm created by Zax in 2017.

Zax hosts his own repository of Palfrader's Echolot program here

https://github.com/crooks/echolot

and I recommend that you use this modern version of Echolot in the future.

To review the code of Zax's modification to Echolot/Conf.pm see:

<https://github.com/crooks/echolot/commit/090a59506113e414097d83fe67cd9041edf43811>

The file Conf.pm in its modified form can be downloaded here:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crooks/echolot/master/Echolot/Conf.pm

Swap out your old Conf.pm with this modified one, restart Echolot
program, and your Cpunk pings will begin working again.
