As far as I understand, gnupg's key listing output of secret keys is currently not fully complete in the manner you noticed before. Can you confirm that this is the problem in your case?

I tried again with my test application, and the GPGME debug output is attached.  I tested with a dummy key, so no confidential data has been removed from the logs.  Please note that I meanwhile upgraded to gpg 1.4.7 and gpgme 1.1.4:

[albrecht at antares ~]$ GPGME_DEBUG=3:expire-sec.log ./gpgme-key-expire test.key at some.org 1
now is 1177164586
key: can_sign=1 can_encrypt=0 expired=0
  subkey id=5AF280F9940BBECD can_sign=1 can_encrypt=0 expired=0 expires=1177073638 [1]
  subkey id=4450EFC17F688538 can_sign=0 can_encrypt=1 expired=0 expires=1177073658 [1]
[albrecht at antares ~]$ GPGME_DEBUG=3:expire-pub.log ./gpgme-key-expire test.key at some.org 0
now is 1177164730
key: can_sign=1 can_encrypt=0 expired=1
  subkey id=5AF280F9940BBECD can_sign=1 can_encrypt=0 expired=1 expires=1177073638 [1]
  subkey id=4450EFC17F688538 can_sign=0 can_encrypt=1 expired=1 expires=1177073658 [1]

GnuPG spits out several "expired" messages in both cases, as you can see in the logs.

For the time being, I will supply a patch for Balsa checking if the secret key has expired or not, but IMO gpgme *must* return a correct value here!

Cheers, Albrecht.
