everyone
I've generated a pair of keys associated with my email address and uploaded the public key to the keyserver: keys.openpgp.org. With the help of gpgme examples, I wrote a C++ program using Visual Studio to retrieve my public key both locally,
gpgme_set_keylist_mode(ceofcontext, GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_LOCAL);
and remotely,
gpgme_set_keylist_mode(ceofcontext, GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_EXTERN);
The key's fingerprint, email, algorithm, name are all correct. The problem is that the key's fields: can_encrypt, can_sign and can_certify are 0 when it is retrieved from the remote key server. This renders the key retrieved remotely unusable.
Has anyone run into similar issue ?
Thanks, Eric
