NAME
       GnuPG::Revoker - GnuPG Key Revoker Objects


SYNOPSIS
         # assumes a GnuPG::PrimaryKey object in $key
         my $revokerfpr = $key->revokers->[0]->fingerprint();


DESCRIPTION
       GnuPG::Revoker objects are generally not instantiated on their own, but rather as part of GnuPG::Key
       objects.  They represent a statement that another key is designated to revoke certifications made by the
       key in question.


OBJECT METHODS
       new( %initialization_args )
           This methods creates a new object.  The optional arguments are initialization of data members.

       is_sensitive()
           Returns 0 if the revoker information can be freely distributed.  If this is non-zero, the information
           should be treated as "sensitive".

           Please see http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#section-5.2.3.15 for more explanation.

       compare( $other, $deep )
           Returns non-zero only when this designated revoker is identical to the other GnuPG::Revoker.  If
           $deep is present and non-zero, the revokers' signatures will also be compared.


OBJECT DATA MEMBERS
       fingerprint
           A GnuPG::Fingerprint object indicating the fingerprint of the specified revoking key.  (Note that
           this is *not* the fingerprint of the key whose signatures can be revoked by this revoker).

       algo_num
           The numeric identifier of the algorithm of the revoker's key.

       signatures
           A list of GnuPG::Signature objects which cryptographically bind the designated revoker to the primary
           key.  If the material was instantiated using the *_with_sigs() functions from GnuPG::Interface, then
           a valid revoker designation should have a valid signature associated with it from the relevant key
           doing the designation (not from the revoker's key).

           Note that designated revoker certifications are themselves irrevocable, so there is no analogous list
           of revocations in a GnuPG::Revoker object.
