[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#1001331: Bug#1001331: gpg: Provide interface to inspect (detached) signatures

You can do this:

  gpg --verify --status-fd 1 x.asc /dev/null 2>/dev/null \
    | awk '$1=="[GNUPG:]" && $2=="BADSIG" { print $3}'

which greps for 

[GNUPG:] BADSIG 19CC1C9E085B107A wk at gnupg.org

This shows the keyid but not the newer fingerprint.  Adding something
for the fingerprint would be easy, but it takes some time before it will
be widely enough deployed.  


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner
