gpg

Sometimes you get downloads that have been signed using PGP :-(

This is a pain in the ass.

To verify the file you downloaded, you need to:

  1. Get the signature file (usually ends in .asc)
  2. run gpg –verify <signature file> - In the output from gpg, look for the Key ID that was used to create the file - Import that public key into your key ring:
  3. Run gpg –verify <signature file> again
  4. You should see “gpg: Good signature from blah blah”
  5. You can choose to ignore the warning about the key not being signed by someone you trust.
