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 directory, while those of the packagers are located below the 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
Import of a new packager key
./keyringctl import <username>.asc
# alternatively override the username otherwise derived from the filename
./keyringctl import --name <username> <file>
Updates to existing packager keys
# username is automatically derived from the fingerprint
./keyringctl import <file_or_directory>...
Import of a new main key
# same options as packager key except mandatory --main
./keyringctl import --main <username>.asc
Installation
To install archlinux-keyring system-wide use the included Makefile
:
make install
