"gpgv(2) sigfile" working for someone ?
by regdub from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5PV2R)
Here, for quite some time "gpgv sigfile" doesn't find the datafile if it isn't passed on the command line.
Code:# gpgv htop-3.1.0-x86_64-1.txz.asc
gpgv: no signed data
gpgv: can't hash datafile: file open error
# gpgv htop-3.1.0-x86_64-1.txz.asc htop-3.1.0-x86_64-1.txz
gpgv: Signature made mar. 21 sept. 2021 20:08:16 CEST using DSA key ID 40102233
gpgv: Good signature from "Slackware Linux Project <security@slackware.com>"
# gpgv2 htop-3.1.0-x86_64-1.txz.asc
gpgv: no signed data
gpgv: can't hash datafile: No data
# gpgv2 htop-3.1.0-x86_64-1.txz.asc htop-3.1.0-x86_64-1.txz
gpgv: Signature made mar. 21 sept. 2021 20:08:16 CEST
gpgv: using DSA key 6A4463C040102233
gpgv: Good signature from "Slackware Linux Project <security@slackware.com>"I just checked the man and according to it, I understand it's still supposed to work.
Code: gpgv sigfile [datafile]
... if datafile is not given the name of the file
holding the signed data is constructed by cutting off the extension (".asc", ".sig" or ".sign") from sigfile.Did I miss something ? Does it work for someone ?
Reminder: gpgv default keyring is trustedkeys.gpg
