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.
