Hi All, If you are looking to verify release signatures, here is a quick tip:
* download all release artifacts into a folder or do a svn checkout of the release - `svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airavata/0.17/RC1/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airavata/0.17/RC1/>` * Verify signatures by a small script something like: for file in `find . -type f -iname '*.asc'` do gpg --verify ${file} done The output will indicate the You'll need to look at the output to ensure it contains only good signatures - gpg: Good signature from ... gpg: Signature made … Once you verify the signature, next step is to uncompress the source and verify it builds fine.
