Description kdd 2005-11-23 09:59:58 UTC
Missing GnuPG signature files (portage-${date}.tar.bz2.gpgsig) after 2005-11-11
for newer portage snapshots on the download mirrors.
The 'Gentoo Portage Snapshot Signing Key' is expired since that date and I
didn't find a new one on the keyservers.

# gpg --list-keys 'Portage Snapshot'
pub   1024D/D8BA32AA 2004-11-11 [expired: 2005-11-11)]
uid                  Gentoo Portage Snapshot Signing Key (Automated Signing Key)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Browse the snapshot directory on any gentoo download mirror.
2. Search for GnuPG signature files (portage-${date}.tar.bz2.gpgsig) with date
after 20051111.
3.
Actual Results:  
No signature files for snapshots after 2005-11-11 found.

Expected Results:  
Please provide GnuPG signature files for the portage snapshots again and publish
a new and valid signing key on the keyservers and/or the Gentoo website.

Kurt, 
 
Brian said you setup the key for this so, here's the bug. 
Comment 2 Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-23 14:45:56 UTC
created new key w/ ID 7DDAD20D.  Sent to pgp.mit.edu.  New snapshots going
forward will use this key.

closing as fixed.

Thanks for the quick response and the publication of a knew signing key, but I
am sorry to say that I still miss the signature for the latest snapshot, so the
problem is only halfway fixed.
I found the new key on pgp.mit.edu and other synced keyservers. Fetched it on
2005-11-23, 23:25 GMT. I understand that it could be too late to use it for
portage-20051123.tar.bz2, created 2005-11-24, 01:55 GMT (2005-11-23, 20:55 GMT
-5:00), but expected to see a signature file portage-20051124.tar.bz2.gpgsig for
the latest snapshot on the mirrors.
Though I don't know anything about the procedure that is used for signing the
snapshot, I guess there is a script for automation that possibly want to use a
wrong key that is explicitly named as an option for gpg or the default
key/keyring points to the old invalid key. (Or I am too impatient and everything
is prepared for the next snapshot ?)
