Hi,
I've been trying to modify how GPGME_EXPORT_MODE_EXTERN of gpgme_op_export() works with non default keyserver. And I hope that it would be useful for other users as well. I've cloned GPGME via git and the commit is 77d149e8614c381458e07808a7930ce3fb92cdc3 and the date is Wed Jun 8 18:06:24 2016 +0200.
According to the documentation at https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gpgme/Exporting-Keys.html#Exporting-Keys, GPGME_EXPORT_MODE_EXTERN of gpgme_op_export() sends keys to the default keyserver via "--send-keys" GPG option.
To send keys to a non default keyserver, what I need to do is support "--keyserver" GPG option along with "--send-keys" GPG option in GPGME.
For this purpose, I've modified export_common() in engine-gpg.c:1821 to have a keyserver via an environment variable named "GPG_KEYSERVER" as follows. I was wondering if using environment variables is the right way to support more GPG options in GPGME than currently GPGME supports.
