Here you show the result of the start operation which is usuallay
success.  What you need to check here instead is STAT as returned by
gpgme_wait.

Is there a reason why you use the asynchronous operaions and not the
synchronous?  Your code would not work with multiple threads because
gpgme_wait may only be called by one thread.

gpgme has a function to figure this out:

  /* Get the information about the configured engines.  A pointer to the
   * first engine in the statically allocated linked list is returned.
   * The returned data is valid until the next gpgme_ctx_set_engine_info.  */
  gpgme_engine_info_t gpgme_ctx_get_engine_info (gpgme_ctx_t ctx);
  
or you run your program with

  GPGME_DEBUG=1:gpgme.log: ./test

which prints the full name of the used tools.  Call them then with
option --version.


Salam-Shalom,
