RPM Signatures for apacheds

Hello Apache Dev,

I am attempting to validate the apacheds rpms using the RPM Signature.  But so far, I have been unable locate a single matching public GPG key that was used sign any of your linux rpms?

Where/How do you build your rpms, and what key is being used to sign them.

So far I have checked M20, M18, M17, they all have differnent rpm signatures. And none of them are in the master KEYS file. Nor could I find them on the pgp mit server.



Thanks,

We use an old version of Tanuki wrapper, with a maven plugin we have
written, to create the packages. I'm not sure we sign the resulting
package using PGP though : when I run rpm -K on the rpm, here is what I
get :

rpm -K  ~/Downloads/apacheds-2.0.0-M20-x86_64.rpm
/Users/elecharny/Downloads/apacheds-2.0.0-M20-x86_64.rpm: (sha1) dsa
sha1 md5 OK


OTOH, you can check the package against the md5/asc checksum which is
available on

All those versions were signed by me, using this :

Not sure if this is what you are looking for...

Hi Chris,

AFAICT we don't sign the RPM (nor deb) package using rpmsign (nor
debsign). Instead there is an .asc file that contains the signature. [1]
describes the process in general for the ASF. [2] contains the .asc
files and describes the verification procedure.

Kind Regards,
Stefan
