Slackware::Slackget::GPG - A simple wrapper class to the gpg binary

Version 0.4

A simple class to verify files signatures with gpg.

    use Slackware::Slackget::GPG;

    my $slackware_slackget_gpg_object = Slackware::Slackget::GPG->new();

new() : The constructor take the followings arguments :

	- gpg_binary : where we can find a valid gpg binary (default: /usr/bin/gpg)

take a file and a signature as parameter and verify the signature of the file. Return a Slackware::Slackget::GPG::Signature object. If the status is UNKNOW, the warnings() accessor may return some interesting data.

	my $sig = $gpg->verify("/usr/local/slack-get-1.0.0-alpha1/update/signature-cache/gcc-g++-3.3.4-i486-1.tgz","/usr/local/slack-get-1.0.0-alpha1/update/package-cache/gcc-g++-3.3.4-i486-1.tgz.asc");
	die "Signature doesn't match.\n" if(!$sig->is_good) ;

Import a key file passed in parameter.

	$gpg->import_key('update/GPG-KEY') or die "unable to import official Slackware GnuPG key.\n";

Return a Slackware::Slackget::Signature object.

The returned object is set with the status (which represent in this case, the status of the import).

On successfull import, it also set teh key_id and the emitter.

Return the number of keys in the keyring that match the given string.

    $gpg->in_keyring('Slackware Linux Project') or die "The GPG signature of the Slackware Linux project cannot be found in your keyring.\n";

Return the list of keys in the current user's keyring.

Return the list of signatures in the current user's keyring.

Get/set the path to the gpg binary.

	die "Cannot find gpg : $!\n" unless( -e $gpg->gpg_binary());
