<title>Introduction to GPGME</title>
<para>
The <application>GPGME</application> package is a C library
that allows cryptography support to be added to a
program. It is designed to make access to public key crypto
engines like <application>GnuPG</application> or GpgSM easier
for applications. <application>GPGME</application> provides
a high-level crypto API for encryption, decryption, signing,
signature verification and key management.

<para>
If <xref linkend='swig'/> is installed, build the Python 3 binding as
a wheel:

<para>
To test the results, you should have <xref linkend="gnupg2"/> installed
and remove the <option>--disable-gpg-test</option> above. If
<xref linkend='swig'/> is installed, it's necessary to adapt the
test suite to use the Python 3 binding just built as a wheel as well.
