Linux Archive - makepkg: command line options for signing packages

On 19/02/11 11:30, Denis A. Altoé Falqueto wrote:

Two new command line options were added:

-n, --sign: forces the generation of a signature for
the resulting package, even if not configured in makepkg.conf.
The command line has precedence over the option in
makepkg.conf. So, even if makepkg.conf has !sign in
BUILDENV, passing --sign to makepkg will make it
sign the package.

I think we should have a --nosign option to which would negate 'sign' in
makepkg.conf. See the --check/--nocheck pair to see how that is achieved.

--signwithkey<key>: there is a possibility of another key
being used, instead of the user's default. For exemple,
pacman-keyring package could be signed by a master key,
because it needs to be trusted explicitly by the user
before the installation of that package. So, this parameter
will be used to supply an id for a key to be used to sign
the package.

I wonder if this is checked too late. I suppose with a package()
function in a PKGBUILD, we can not rebuild by using "makepkg -R" but
this still seems quite late to abort.

--batch is bad here. It forces the use of a gpg-agent.
