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:

Build:

  • make
  • findutils
  • pkgconf
  • systemd

Runtime:

  • python
  • sequoia-sq

Optional:

  • hopenpgp-tools (verify)
  • sq-keyring-linter (verify)
  • git (ci)

Usage

Build

Build all PGP artifacts (keyring, ownertrust, revoked files) to the build directory

./keyringctl build

Import

Import a new packager key by deriving the username from the filename.

./keyringctl import <username>.asc

Alternatively import a file or directory and override the username

./keyringctl import --name <username> <file_or_directory...>

Updates to existing keys will automatically derive the username from the known fingerprint.

./keyringctl import <file_or_directory...>

Main key imports support the same options plus a mandatory --main

./keyringctl import --main <username>.asc

Export

Export the whole keyring including main and packager to stdout

./keyringctl export

Limit to specific certs using an output file

./keyringctl export <username_or_fingerprint_or_directory...> --output <filename>

List

List all certificates in the keyring

./keyringctl list

Only show a specific main key

./keyringctl list --main <username_or_fingerprint...>

Inspect

Inspect all certificates in the keyring

./keyringctl inspect

Only inspect a specific main key

./keyringctl inspect --main <username_or_fingerprint_or_directory...>

Verify

Verify certificates against modern expectations and assumptions

./keyringctl verify <username_or_fingerprint_or_directory...>

Installation

To install archlinux-keyring system-wide use the included Makefile:

make install

To verify a tag, first import the relevant PGP keys:

gpg --auto-key-locate wkd --search-keys <email-from-above>

Afterwards a tag can be verified from a clone of this repository. Please note that one must check the used key of the signature against the legitimate keys listed above:

git verify-tag <tag>
