Why do you want to tweak gcc options if you are anyway on a 64 bit
system?  Also they seem to be harmelss, hast gpgme been build with the
same options?  What does
  gpgme-config --cflags --libs
tell you?

gpgme.h ist missing but below you are using constants defined by
gpgme.h.

(please always check for malloc error!)

Don't cast without a good reason.

>   printf("Protocol name: %s\n",p);

Ditto.

Try first without setting a non default engine info.


To debug your problem, I suggest to run the program like this:

 GPGME_DEBUG=9:/tmp/gpgme.log:

and check the log file.
