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  cur-
       rently 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.
