Signature verification for 4.1.3-RC1

This is not a blocker for the release (and moreover signature files are 
explicitly allowed to be updated during the release vote if needed), but 
I couldn't verify signatures in a straightforward way for source packages.

One of the signatures is mine; no problem with that, and that itself is 
enough to prove integrity for release approval purposes.

Patricia's one, according to my GPG, is done with a key having a short 
ID of 02703386; I couldn't find the public key in the usual places, so I 
couldn't verify this one.

Again, this is not a blocker issue since one key is enough, but public 
keys used for signing releases are expected to be found at:
http://www.apache.org/dist/openoffice/KEYS
or (secondary resource) at
https://people.apache.org/keys/committer/

The former contains my key and another key by Patricia (short ID 
A57935C5); the latter contains the same key by Patricia - it doesn't 
contain mine since I never bothered uploading it again to enforce the 
long IDs and I now see that someone decided to remove the keys that only 
had a short ID, I'll fix it later today.

Where can I find the matching public key by Patricia? It should be added 
in SVN to
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/openoffice/KEYS
which (I believe) maps to the first URL I listed. There is surely a way 
to do it without a full checkout, but I didn't check details.

Regards,
   Andrea.

My key is now listed on the secondary resource too, just for extra 
visibility. If others want to do the same, they must simply login at 
id.apache.org and specify the full fingerprint there. The web page is 
updated once a day.

Thanks, it works now after importing the new KEYS file:

$ gpg --verify apache-openoffice-4.1.3-r1761381-src.tar.gz.asc 
apache-openoffice-4.1.3-r1761381-src.tar.gz
gpg: Signature made Sat Oct  1 22:16:14 2016 CEST using RSA key ID 8F0E4C63

Please test again. I have tried to fix both MIT and the KEYS file.

The Key ID is correct. When I verify e.g. 
apache-openoffice-4.1.3-r1761381-src.tar.bz2.asc, I get the following 
output:

gpg: WARNING: using insecure memory!
gpg: please see http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/faqs.html for more

gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg:          There is no indication that the signature belongs to the

02703386

It looks as though the problem is with publishing the public key - my 
gpg knows about it from my local files. I'll look into it. Thanks for 
the information.

I can find mine here (note: you have to add "0x" for the search to succeed):
http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?search=0x8F0E4C63&op=vindex&fingerprint=on
But the same search for yours (the "new" one) fails:
http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?search=0x02703386&op=vindex&fingerprint=on

Is my GPG wrong in detecting a signature (from you) with Key ID 02703386?

Here are the full details in case this helps (my GPG is configured to 
use the "long" fingerprint format, but I set it back to the default for 
this test):
$ gpg --verify apache-openoffice-4.1.3-r1761381-src.tar.bz2.asc 
apache-openoffice-4.1.3-r1761381-src.tar.bz2
gpg: Signature made Sat Oct  1 22:16:07 2016 CEST using RSA key ID 8F0E4C63
gpg: Good signature from "Andrea Pescetti (Release Signing Key) 
<pe...@apache.org>"
gpg: Signature made Wed Oct  5 05:03:35 2016 CEST using RSA key ID 02703386
gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found

$ gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 0x8F0E4C63
(this is mine; it is retrieved, unchanged)

$ gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 0xA57935C5
(this is your "old" one; works)

$ gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 0x02703386
(this is your "new" one; I receive "key not found")

> I didn't think we were supposed to update KEYS directly?

Yes. The KEYS file is described here:
https://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html#keys-policy
and as far as I know update is supposed to be manual.

I had to make a change in the key preferences to meet the release 
signing requirements. I uploaded to a couple of servers, including MIT, 
and waited a few days.

I didn't think we were supposed to update KEYS directly?
