I don't see a way to do this with gpgme besides first trying to verify the signature, parsing the results, and using the info from those parsed results. But i can see why you'd want to do this, particularly if the thing signed is large and potentially expensive to verify. anyway, i've opened an issue to track this feature request: https://dev.gnupg.org/T3734 regards, --dkg
