2011-09-02pacman-key: add --refresh-keys operationDan McGee
This allows new signatures to be pulled, revocations to be found, etc. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-09-02pacman-key: split keyserver to a separate optionDan McGee
This also renames '--receive' to '-recv-keys' to match the wrapped gpg option name, rather than invent a new one, now that the calling convention is the same. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-09-02pacman-key help and documentation cleanupDan McGee
We were using the mystical [<foobar>] options which is some sort of cross between a <required> argument and an [optional] one. Remove this madness and do some other general cleanup/consistency work in the manpage. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-09-02pacman-key: document --lsign-keyDan McGee

2011-08-29pacman-key: rework and document holding keys in keyringAllan McRae
The HoldKey option was undocumented and was not suited for pacman.conf. Instead use the file "/etc/pacman.d/gnupg/heldkeys" to contain a list of keys not to be removed from the pacman keyring with the --populate option. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2011-08-29pacman-key: rework importing distro/repo provided keyringsAllan McRae
The current --reload option, apart from being non-clear in its naming, is very limited in that only one keyring can be provided. A distribution may want to provide multiple keyrings for various subsets of its organisation or custom repo providers may also want to provide a keyring. This patch adds a --populate option that reads keyrings from (by default) /usr/share/pacman/keyrings. A keyring is named foo.gpg, with optional foo-revoked file providing a list of revoked key ids. These files are required to be signed (detached) by a key trusted by pacman-key, in practice probably by the key that signed the package providing these files. The --populate flag either updates the pacman keyring using all keyrings in the directory or individual keyrings can be specified. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2011-08-02pacman-key: follow gpg options for listing keysAllan McRae
The current --list option outputed the keys and all their signatures which can be overly verbose. It also did not take a list of keys on the command line to limit its output (although the code suggests that was intended). That patch brings consistency with gpg, providing --list-keys and --list-sigs options that function equivalently to those provided by gpg.

2011-07-28Unify modelines in Asciidoc filesDan McGee
This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run through Asciidoc, as well as adding the spell and spelllang declarations, just as we had in NEWS already. The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of work already uses these spellings. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-07-27pacman-key: Add --import and --import-trustdbPang Yan Han
Currently, pacman-key allows the user to import their keys using the --add option. However, no similar functionality exists for importing ownertrust values. The --import-trustdb option takes a list of directories and imports ownertrust values if the directories have a trustdb.gpg database. The --import option takes a list of directories and imports keys from pubring.gpg and ownertrust values from trustdb.gpg. Think of it as a combination of --add and --import-trustdb Signed-off-by: Pang Yan Han <pangyanhan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-07-19pacman-key: add --init optionAllan McRae
Add an --init option that ensures that the pacman keyring has all the necessary files and they have the correct permissions for being read as a user. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
2011-07-19pacman-key: add --verify optionAllan McRae

2011-07-19pacman-key: update man pageAllan McRae
Update man page to reflect current options. Also add a description on how to manually interact with the pacman keyring with gpg. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
