perl - Is there a canonical, if not core, Gnu Privacy Guard CPAN module?

Question

I'm looking for the right GPG Perl module to use for a small project. I see there are numerous competing modules providing almost identical functionality, but some have a slew of unaddressed bugs, haven't received an update in half a decade, etc. Is there a GPG module one should always use, or do I just need to bite the bullet and assess which is the best for my needs and whose bugs will have the least impact?

Answer 1

I recently used Ruby's GPGME module to do some pretty cool stuff with GPG. GPGME is a C library, and various people have ported it to other scripting languages. I'd try out the following one and see if it works for you. It should function as if you're writing a native GPGME-linked C program.

Crypt::GpgME

Cheers!
