        @Nonnull
        public org.bouncycastle.openpgp.PGPSignature getSignatureWithPreferences()
        Description copied from class: KeyAccessor
        Depending on the way we address the key (key-id or user-id), return the respective PGPSignature which contains the algorithm preferences we are going to use. If we address a key via its user-id, we want to rely on the algorithm preferences in the user-id certification, while we would instead rely on those in the direct-key signature if we'd address the key by key-id.
