Introduction to gpgme
The gpgme package is a C library
that allows cryptography support to be added to a
program. It is designed to make access to public key crypto
engines like GnuPG or GpgSM easier
for applications. gpgme provides
a high-level crypto API for encryption, decryption, signing,
signature verification and key management.
This package is known to build and work properly
using an LFS 12.4 platform.
