This allows an easy to use cli which invokes the export function to get the keyring and uses the ownertrust and revoke functions to write all artifacts into a target directory.

# archlinux-keyring
|
|
|
|
The archlinux-keyring project holds PGP packet material and tooling
|
|
(`keyringctl`) to create the distribution keyring for Arch Linux.
|
|
The keyring is used by pacman to establish the web of trust for the packagers
|
|
of the distribution.
|
|
|
|
The PGP packets describing the main signing keys can be found below the
|
|
[keyring/main](keyring/main) directory, while those of the packagers are located below the
|
|
[keyring/packager](keyring/packager) directory.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
The following packages need to be installed to be able to create a PGP keyring
|
|
from the provided data structure and to install it:
|
|
|
|
* make
|
|
* python
|
|
* sequoia-sq
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Build
|
|
|
|
Build all PGP artifacts (keyring, ownertrust, revoked files) to the build directory
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Import
|
|
|
|
Import a new packager key by deriving the username from the filename.
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl import <username>.asc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively import a file or directory and override the username
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl import --name <username> <file_or_directory...>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Updates to existing keys will automatically derive the username from the known fingerprint.
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl import <file_or_directory...>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Main key imports support the same options plus a mandatory `--main`
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl import --main <username>.asc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Export
|
|
|
|
Export the whole keyring including main and packager to stdout
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl export
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Limit to specific usernames using an output file
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl export <usernames...> --output <filename>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Only export specific certificate directories in [keyring](keyring)
|
|
```bash
|
|
./keyringctl export <directory...>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To install archlinux-keyring system-wide use the included `Makefile`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make install
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Releases
|
|
|
|
[Releases of
|
|
archlinux-keyring](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archlinux-keyring/-/tags)
|
|
are created by its current maintainer [Christian
|
|
Hesse](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/eworm). Tags are signed using the PGP key
|
|
with the ID `02FD1C7A934E614545849F19A6234074498E9CEE`.
|
|
|
|
To verify a tag, first import the relevant PGP key:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
gpg --auto-key-locate wkd --search-keys eworm@archlinux.org
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterwards a tag can be verified from a clone of this repository:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git verify-tag <tag>
|
|
```
