Right, except that the CL binding has been there for the last decade and
does not implement all features.

I had to change the ABI for non-released stuff recently and there is
small chance that it will happen again before the release.  But well,
that new code is not yet in use by any Debian package.

Missing items for the release are support for the new --quick commands
and for --tofu-policy.  I'll work on this next week; gpgme 1.7.0 has
currently top priority.


Salam-Shalom,
