Verifying the signature

Linsk binaries are packaged with a PGP signature to verify the authenticity of the builds. gpg is required to verify signatures like this. You can fetch and import the signing key by executing the following:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AlexSSD7/linsk/b59880e6c4e2875a926aeaa7a3b9704df04b33ba/keys/AlexSSD7.key | gpg --import

Once you have imported the key, you can run the following to verify the signature of the file with SHA-256 hashes:

gpg --verify linsk_sha256_v0.1.0.txt.sig linsk_sha256_v0.1.0.txt

You should then see something like this:

gpg: Signature made Mon 04 Sep 2023 09:44:18 AM BST
gpg:                using RSA key F7231DFD3333A27F71D171383B627C597D3727BD
gpg: Good signature from "AlexSSD7 <alexandersadovskyi7@protonmail.com>" [ultimate]

Please ensure that the key ID is F7231DFD3333A27F71D171383B627C597D3727BD

After the signature is verified successfully, you may now open the hashes file (linsk_sha256_v0.1.0.txt) and compare the checksums. You can generate a checksum by executing the following command:

sha256sum <file path>
