bgstack15i got at least one invocation of gbp to work. It only worked with debian/master. Whenever I check out debian/1.26.0-7 it would get say I'm on a detached HEAD and gbp would refuse to operate.01:22
bgstack15I also got pbuilder to work. Intriguing. Maybe I'll use it more for my on-prem builds. Nowadays most of my builds are up on the Open Build Service.01:23
onefangfsmithred: use the command "gpg --edit-key fsmithred@whatever.org" and then the list sub command to show the various keys.  If there is no subkey with "usage: E" for encrypting, you'll have to add one.12:27
onefangIn theory, I haven't tested things yet.12:28
fsmithredI want to know how to put the E there.12:43
onefanghttps://www.linux.com/news/protecting-code-integrity-pgp-part-3-generating-pgp-subkeys/ was useful to me.12:46
onefangOr use the addkey sub command.12:46
onefangOr even the help sub command.  B-)12:46
onefangGnuPG really needs a lot more documentation.  lol12:47
onefangOK, if I got all of this correct, then my new PGP key E0340D3A51DB0EB0 is now on hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net.  Any one wanna help me test that?13:54
onefangPlus I should have NeoMutt configured to do the right thing.13:55
rrqmmm http://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net/# doesn't agree14:38
onefangI didn't get an error message when I sent it.14:40
onefangYou might have left off the 0x at the beginning of the key.  http://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net/pks/lookup?search=0xE0340D3A51DB0EB0&fingerprint=on&op=index14:43
onefangThat results page looks correct to me.14:45
rrq still get "No results found" ??14:46
onefang"0xE0340D3A51DB0EB0" is what I searched for.14:47
onefang"E0340D3A51DB0EB0" didn't turn up a result, but then I saw the text to start the search term with 0x.14:47
arachnopavelgpg --dry-run --verbose --keyserver hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-key E0340D3A51DB0EB014:48
arachnopavelWorks for me.14:48
rrqgpg: keyserver receive failed: No data14:48
arachnopavelgpg: pub  rsa4096/E0340D3A51DB0EB0 2020-04-26  David Walter Seikel <onefang@sledjhamr.org>14:49
onefangThat's me.14:49
onefangYou are holding it wrong rrq.  B-)14:49
rrqgpg: data source: http://209.244.105.201:1137114:49
arachnopavelI think hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net takes too long to respond sometimes.14:49
rrqthe DNS has two hosts14:50
arachnopavel16 seconds here.14:50
onefangIt's supposed to be a pool of servers, which is why it has "pool" and "keyservers" in the name.  Might just be replicating the key to the other servers in the pool.14:51
onefangI got the right one, coz it cached the DNS from when I sent it.  arachnopavel got lucky, rrq got unlucky.14:52
rrqand "gpg" does it's own DNS lookup; i.e., doesn't use /etc/hosts14:53
rrqor it caches DNS ?14:58
rrqhow do I clear the DNS cache for gpg ???15:03
onefangNo idea.15:03
rrqreinstall?15:04
arachnopavelI guess my dirmngr instance cached the right dns record for the host and then just reused it.15:05
rrqwhats' a dirmngr instance?15:05
arachnopavelman dirmngr :)15:06
arachnopavelSo, 82.148.229.254 is the only one of three actually contains the key atm. The other two will probably receive it soon.15:07
onefangI wonder how long that takes?15:08
arachnopavelNo idea.15:08
onefangSo long as rrq isn't in a hurry to send me encrypted email...15:08
rrqI suppose I now need to wrap all g* programs with a "pkill dirmngr" :(15:11
* rrq learnt something new today too15:34
onefangI spent hours researching PGP, so I learnt lots of things today.  Trying to figure out what best practises are, so I can follow them.15:35
onefangAnd in 16 years time, the next time someone asks me to use PGP, I'll learn it all over again.  lol15:41
fsmithredlooks like I already have subkeys for encryption. I guess I just need to select them in my mail client. So does that mean an encrypted and signed message requires two keys?15:48
fsmithredonefang, I just sent you an email that's supposed to be encrypted and signed, but I don't think it's either.16:00
onefangGot it, plain text, no signature.16:02
onefangWell, it has DKIM signatures.16:02
onefangSigned reply on it's way back to you.16:08
fsmithredthanks16:12
fsmithredI sent another. I think it worked this time.16:22
rrqonefang: at https://www.devuan.org/os/ at the bottom there is a sample commands for listing the Devuan keyring... and that command doesn't work for me; does it work for you?16:24
fsmithredworks here16:26
rrqyeah I'm stupid; thought the command wrapped16:26
fsmithreddon't need to be root, either16:26
onefangEncrypted PGP message, but I can't read it.16:28
fsmithredyeah, the public key is attached, but it might be in the encrypted part16:29
fsmithredI'll send the public key again.16:29
rrqinteresting. the Devuan repository key has been registered without "user id" ? so I can't get it from the key server(s)?16:43
fsmithredapt install devuan-keyring?16:43
rrqI know, but can't get it from the key server(s)16:45
rrqmeans the instructions on https://beta.devuan.org/os/keyring are both outdated and can't even be followed with the current key16:46
onefangEncrypted reply on it's way.16:47
fsmithredit worked!16:48
rrqonefang: given your recently acquired knowledge, the quest of fixing up https://beta.devuan.org/os/keyring is perfect for you ...16:50
onefangYay, and lol, respectively.16:51
onefangI'm still busy catching up on all the old stuff that got delayed by my sudden unexpected server migration.  Where I was offered a better server for less money, then AU# tanked and it ended up costing me exactly the same.  lol16:52
onefangSo I'm not taking on any more projects.16:53
rrqfair enough. we might find one more person that knows some gpg...16:55
onefangThat should have been "AU$ tanked"  lol16:58
onefangNow try sending me encrypted email.17:20
LeePenbpmedley: The new build of choose-mirror is in beowulf.18:54
bpmedleyLeePen : Thanks!  I'll work with rrq on including that.18:56
