This is my suggestion for a new GnuPG.pm. It addresses more than just this wish, but separating all the changes into different patches would be messy.
First I don't see why Sign_Release() should open and read the data and passphrase into memory. By passing the filenames directly to gpg, like Check_Signature() does, forking (to avoid trapping SIGPIPE in case of error, I presume) becomes unnecessary. I use open3 to be able to capture the logging output so that the full nature of any error can be found in the log, and I pass the file descriptor of the tempfile to open3 so that gpg can write to it directly. Other changes: I made gpg_home and gpg_sign_key optional options and I like to use a Temp::File object because it automatically unlinks the unless told to keep it, which means less to think about when cleaning up after an error. -- Magnus Holmgren [EMAIL PROTECTED]
