Hello, and thanks for your work on this.

I had an older 6.0-0004-rc4 installed on my Galaxy Note 2 (n7100); as I
am now trying to upgrade it to the released 6.0-0004 I have managed to
upgrade it to rc5-transition , which works, but then installing the
6.0-0004 image fails.

Details follow.

First problem: missing recovery image on the web site.

The page
  https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/Images
has a dead link for the recovery image for 6.0-0004 on the n7100:
The following URLs give fail with 404:
  
https://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/replicant/images/replicant-6.0/0004/images/n7100/recovery-n7100.img.asc
  
https://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/replicant/images/replicant-6.0/0004/images/n7100/recovery-n7100.img
(I have not checked all the images for the other models; you might want
to.)

So instead I tried using the image found here
  
https://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/replicant/images/replicant-6.0/0004-transition/images/n7100/
which look recent, along with the other versions I had.

Second problem: installing the new 6.0-0004 image over ADB fails as
shown here:

The image looks correct, but...

This might be the problem: as gpg says above, the key has since expired.
Could that be the reason why the image verification fails?  Or maybe
the recovery system I am using simply lacks the correct key.

Thanks in advance,
