Section 12.1 says:

Original Text
-------------
This specification makes use of the PKCS#1 functions EME-PKCS1-v1_5
   and EMSA-PKCS1-v1_5.  However, the calling conventions of these
   functions have changed in the past.  To avoid potential confusion and
   interoperability problems, we are including local copies in this
   document, adapted from those in PKCS#1 v2.1 [RFC8017].  [RFC8017]
   should be treated as the ultimate authority on PKCS#1 for OpenPGP.
   Nonetheless, we believe that there is value in having a self-
   contained document that avoids problems in the future with needed
   changes in the conventions.

Corrected Text

   and EMSA-PKCS1-v1_5.  However, the calling conventions of these

   document, adapted from those in PKCS#1 v2.2 [RFC8017].  [RFC8017]

Notes
-----
RFC 8017 describes PKCS#1 v2.2, not PKCS#1 v2.1
