Download my public GPG key: 4812C85C.asc
gpg --sign --armor -b foobar-1.0.0.deb
The result will be a detached signature, foobar-1.0.0.deb.asc.
The --armor option creates an ASCII (non-binary) signature file, and the
-b option causes the signature to be detached, in a separate file
with the *.asc ending. An additional argument will permit selecting a specific key if the default key
is not desired. This argument is -u KEY. Here, KEY could be the user name or a key ID.
Example:
gpg --sign --armor -b -u 4812C85C
foobar-1.0.0.deb
It follows that you must also have a secret key to complete the key pair in order to sign a file.
gpg --import 4812C85C.asc
To confirm that a downloaded RPM file has not been tampered with, use gpg with the --verify option. For Example:
gpg --verify bsu-3.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm.asc
You will need to have both the *.rpm file and the *.asc signature file in the same directory.
You can also check the fingerprint for this
key
gpg --fingerprint 4812C85C bsu-3.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm.asc
Compare the result with the fingerprint listed at the bottom of this page.
gpg --import 4812C85C.asc
To check the *.changes or *.dsc files, you use the "gpg" program with the "verify" option. For example:
gpg --verify bsu_3.0.0-1.dsc
gpg --verify bsu_3.0.0-1+deb8_amd64.changes.asc
The above commands are used to check the source package. The *.deb packages (both binary and source) are signed with a detached signature. To verify a file with a detached signature, you would give a command like the following example:
gpg --verify bsu_3.0.0-1+plplot_amd64.deb.asc
This will work if the file bsu_3.0.0-1+plplot_amd64.deb is in the same directory as the detached signature. The alternative command is to give the *.deb file as an argument on the command line. The general form would be:
gpg --verify bsu_3.0.0-1+plplot_amd64.deb.asc bsu_3.0.0-1+plplot_amd64.deb
where the second argument might also include a pathname to the files location. It also works if they are in the same directory.
You can also check the fingerprint for this key
gpg --fingerprint 4812C85C bsu_3.0.0-1+deb8_amd64.deb.asc
Compare the result with the fingerprint listed at the bottom of this page.
