====================

D = DSA signing key (or subkey)
g = elgamal encryption subkey
R = RSA signing and/or encryption key (or subkey)

from the man page...

 	--list-sigs [names]
 		Same as --list-keys, but the signatures are listed too.
 		For each signature listed, there are several flags in
 		between the "sig" tag and keyid.  These flags give
 		additional information about each signature.  From left to
 		right, they are the numbers 1-3 for certificate check
 		level (see --default-cert-check-level), "L"  for a local
 		or non-exportable signature (see --lsign-key), "R" for a
 		nonRevocable signature (see --nrsign-key), "P" for a
 		signature that contains a policy URL (see
 		--cert-policy-url), "N" for a signature that contains a
 		notation (see --cert-notation), and "X" for an eXpired
 		signature (see --ask-cert-expire).
