Re: Force RPM to check GPG key

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Even more... -K/--checksig is not checking key at all and it doesn't work with -i or -U.

Thanks Greg!

I've added macro file in /etc/rpm and rpm has taken values for vsflags, but still, it has no effect on installation or upgrades or anything, tried 0x00000 and 0xf0000.

Found definitions in here:


[root@srv rpm]# rpm --showrc|grep -i vs
-14: __vsflags  0xf0000
-14: _vsflags_build     %{__vsflags}
-14: _vsflags_erase     0x00000
-14: _vsflags_install   0x00000
-14: _vsflags_query     %{__vsflags}
-14: _vsflags_rebuilddb %{__vsflags}
-14: _vsflags_up2date   %{__vsflags}
-14: _vsflags_verify    %{__vsflags}

No luck :|

I figured that would be the case.

JJ just told me that --checksig only gets run separate from --install,
which seemed kinda silly to me until he pointed out that this is
because rpm is configuredby default  to check headers+payload against
signature if possible.

So by default it is supposedly doing this already, it is just an 'if
possible' scenario.  So if you don't have a key to verify against it
just moves forward, would be my understanding.

I did look in `rpm --showrc` for any value that might seem to force
this but was unable to locate one (I didn't look at each value, just
tried several greps).  JJ suggested i dig through /usrlib/rpm/macros
and in there I found vsflags.   The default value is 0xf0000 which
means if set, check header+payload (if possible).  If you look in this
file you can see the options and if you have a better config you can
set it in a macro file over in /etc/rpm.  Would have been nice if the
variable name was a bit more descriptive for the sake of grep but such
is life i guess.
