NAME

       rpmkeys - RPM Keyring

SYNOPSIS

       rpmkeys {--import|--checksig}

DESCRIPTION

       The general forms of rpm digital signature commands are

       rpmkeys --import PUBKEY ...

       rpmkeys {-K|--checksig} PACKAGE_FILE ...

       The  --checksig  option checks all the digests and signatures contained in PACKAGE_FILE to
       ensure the integrity and origin of the package.  Note that  signatures  are  now  verified
       whenever  a  package  is  read,  and --checksig is useful to verify all of the digests and
       signatures associated with a package.

       Digital signatures cannot be verified without a public key.  An ASCII armored  public  key
       can  be  added to the rpm database using --import.  An imported public key is carried in a
       header, and key ring  management  is  performed  exactly  like  package  management.   For
       example, all currently imported public keys can be displayed by:

       rpm -qa gpg-pubkey*

       Details  about a specific public key, when imported, can be displayed by querying.  Here's
       information about the Red Hat GPG/DSA key:

       rpm -qi gpg-pubkey-db42a60e

       Finally, public keys can be erased after importing just  like  packages.   Here's  how  to
       remove the Red Hat GPG/DSA key

       rpm -e gpg-pubkey-db42a60e

       rpmkeys  --help - as rpm supports customizing the options via popt aliases it's impossible
       to guarantee that what's described in the manual matches what's available.
