self.status is None:

[ianccole]

Verify() assumes that KEY_CONSIDERED is never the first line parsed as it will append this to an existing self.status

See here:

python-gnupg/pretty_bad_protocol/_parsers.py

Line 1519 in 7845714

self.status = '\n'.join([self.status, "key considered"])

But this is my output from the CL:

Personally - would change self.status = None to self.status = "" in 2 places:

python-gnupg/pretty_bad_protocol/_parsers.py

Line 1424 in 7845714

self.status = None

python-gnupg/pretty_bad_protocol/_parsers.py

Line 1522 in 7845714

self.status = None
