Quick GPG note where I may find it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To create an Ed25519 key, or whatever will be the default version in the
|
|
|
|
|
future as defined by your GPG version:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
gpg --quick-gen-key address@domain.example future-default
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note the keyid and edit it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
gpg --edit-key KEYID
|
|
|
|
|
adduid # here fill your name and details as asked
|
|
|
|
|
1 # to select the uid the first command generated
|
|
|
|
|
deluid # to delete the uid which doesn't contain your name
|
|
|
|
|
save
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then you are ready to publish the public key however you generally publish
|
|
|
|
|
it, preferably in multiple places from where some recognise revokation
|
|
|
|
|
certificates if the time ever comes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: You can extend the expiry time of an expired gpg signature by issuing
|
|
|
|
|
the `expire` command in `--edit-key` and the key is valid again when the
|
|
|
|
|
update is reimported to gpg keyrings by other people.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Keybase note: To publish the key `keybase pgp select --multi` (where multi
|
2019-11-26 09:58:29 +01:00
|
|
|
is required for multiple PGP keys per account and to submit changes to it,
|
2019-11-26 09:54:54 +01:00
|
|
|
`keybase pgp update --all` (where --all is again necessary only if you have
|
|
|
|
|
multiple keys).

Claws-mail note that is somewhat related.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debian: `sudo apt install claws-mail claws-mail-address-keeper claws-mail-attach-warner claws-mail-gdata-plugin claws-mail-pgpinline claws-mail-pgpmime claws-mail-smime-plugin`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Load plugins from Configuration (menu) --> Plugins --> Load, they are all
|
|
|
|
|
somewhere in `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/claws-mail/plugins` or similar path.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It wants to read `~/.signature` which I have like:

|
|
|
|
|

My other hats have like:

other hat, please fill this

```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note the empty line in the end, as PGP/INLINE is the way to sign emails,
|
|
|
|
|
it the PGP signature comes after it and in my opinion looks a bit cleaner
|
|
|
|
|
with the signature ending to an empty line.
