NAME¶
GnuPG::Revoker - GnuPG Key Revoker Objects
SYNOPSIS¶
# assumes a GnuPG::PrimaryKey object in $key
my $revokerfpr = $key->revokers->[0]->fingerprint();
DESCRIPTION¶
GnuPG::Revoker objects are generally not instantiated on their own, but rather
as part of GnuPG::Key objects. They represent a statement that another key is
designated to revoke certifications made by the key in question.
OBJECT METHODS¶
- new( %initialization_args )
- This methods creates a new object. The optional arguments
are initialization of data members.
- is_sensitive()
- Returns 0 if the revoker information can be freely
distributed. If this is non-zero, the information should be treated as
"sensitive".
Please see http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#section-5.2.3.15 for more
explanation.
- compare( $other,
$deep )
- Returns non-zero only when this designated revoker is
identical to the other GnuPG::Revoker. If $deep is present and non-zero,
the revokers' signatures will also be compared.
OBJECT DATA MEMBERS¶
- fingerprint
- A GnuPG::Fingerprint object indicating the fingerprint of
the specified revoking key. (Note that this is *not* the fingerprint of
the key whose signatures can be revoked by this revoker).
- algo_num
- The numeric identifier of the algorithm of the revoker's
key.
- signatures
- A list of GnuPG::Signature objects which cryptographically
bind the designated revoker to the primary key. If the material was
instantiated using the * _with_sigs() functions from
GnuPG::Interface, then a valid revoker designation should have a valid
signature associated with it from the relevant key doing the designation
(not from the revoker's key).
Note that designated revoker certifications are themselves irrevocable, so
there is no analogous list of revocations in a GnuPG::Revoker object.
