Backward compatibility is provided where it was possible without too

The user is expected to write the response to the file descriptor,
followed by a newline.
+ * The recipients interface has been removed and replaced by a more
+ generic and light gpgme_user_ids_* interface, which only provides
+ two functions: gpgme_user_ids_append adds a new user ID at the end
+ of the linked list, and gpgme_user_ids_release releases all user
+ IDs in the linked list. The resulting user ID object is free for
+ the user to change (note however that gpgme_user_ids_release only
+ releases resources allocated by GPGME).
+
+ This change propagates to the prototypes of gpgme_op_encrypt,
+ gpgme_op_encrypt_start, gpgme_op_encrypt_sign and
+ gpgme_op_encrypt_sign_start. Also the prototypes of
+ gpgme_op_export_start and gpgme_op_export finally make sense.
+
+ Here is an example how to use the new interface:
+
+ gpgme_user_id_t rset = NULL;
+ gpgme_user_id_t *rset_lastp = &rset;
+
+ err = gpgme_user_ids_append (rset_lastp, "Alpha");
+ fail_if_err (err);
+ (*rset_lastp)->validity = GPGME_VALIDITY_FULL;
+
+ rset_lastp = &(*rset_lastp)->next;
+ err = gpgme_user_ids_append (rset_lastp, "Bob");
+ fail_if_err (err);
+ (*rset_lastp)->validity = GPGME_VALIDITY_FULL;
+
+ [...]
+
+ gpgme_user_ids_release (rset);
+
* gpgme_op_verify and gpgme_op_decrypt_verify don't return a status
summary anymore. Use gpgme_get_sig_status to retrieve the individual
stati.
