Nice to hear, but why doesn't it work correctly with me?

Yes, thats, the way I test it as well.

OK, the fingerprint, i get as well.
Like I wrote you I have Segmentation Faults with:

result.signatures.next
result.signatures.exp_timestamp
result.signatures.validity_reason
result.signatures.validity

> valid, but more Information

This is great. It shows that the Signature bit sigsum.GREEN is set!

It has a 1, so it is possible to sign!

Precompiled debian package 0.6.2
[..]

Python 2.3
Pyme 0.6.2
GnuPG: self build debian Package 1.4.1 with a small patch (doesn't
change the working behaviour, just debug)

Great! This is IMHO the best way!
So, thanks for your help, I will test it on a diffrent machine.

Best regards,

Stefan,

I've tried to use your functions and they seem to work perfectly:

signature = sign("fr...@mi...", "Hello")
print verify("Hello", signature)

yields (if "print result.signatures.fpr" is uncommented):

024E0908E5E7CD865B7D87BDCAB3D9DD2A51DAAC
valid, but more Information

There's a chance that Frodo cannot sign - what value is shown for 
key.can_sign?
Another problem can be related to how PyMe is compiled - do you use 
precompiled package or compiled pyme yourself?
If you compiled it yourself - what version of PyMe, GPGME, and Swing did 
you use? Any warning?
If you use precompiled version - what version of PyMe and GnuPG do you use?

Cheers,
Igor
