Usage of gdbm files for keyrings
|
||||
================================
|
||||
The key to store the keyblock is its fingerprint, other records
|
||||
are used for secondary keys. Fingerprints are always 20 bytes
|
||||
where 16 bit fingerprints are appended with zero.
|
||||
The first byte of the key gives some information on the type of the
|
||||
key.
|
||||
1 = key is a 20 bit fingerprint (16 bytes fpr are padded with zeroes)
|
||||
data is the keyblock
|
||||
2 = key is the complete 8 byte keyid
|
||||
data is a list of 20 byte fingerprints
|

3 = key is the short 4 byte keyid
|
||||
data is a list of 20 byte fingerprints
|
||||
4 = key is the email address
|

data is a list of 20 byte fingerprints
|

|

Data is prepended with a type byte:
|
||||
1 = keyblock
|

2 = list of 20 byte padded fingerprints
|

3 = list of list fingerprints (but how to we key them?)

NOTE: This is deprecated and will be removed in future versions.
|

|

This mode can be used to perform multiple operations with one call to
|

gpg. It comes handy in cases where you have to verify a lot of
|

signatures. Currently we support only detached signatures. This mode
