GPGsm does not do anything with GPG keys directly. The Keys it creates are stored inside GPGsm and are derived from GPG keys, AFAIU. For your purpose you have to use the GPGme library. > While I could wrap this functionality of gpg, I'd really prefer not > to > and I'd rather not drop the user to a gpg prompt if I don't have to. GPGme does what you are trying to do, without prompting, except for cases where PIN or password are required. This events are handled by gpg-agent. GPGsm is for managing X.509 certificates. I'm not sure if it can handle moved keys. It should, if it interaqcts with gpg-agent. That's something I'm not really sure of.
