GPG Key

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on November 24, 2004 06:05 AM
The author makes it sound like installing a gpg key is an annoyance and a bad thing. I don't know about you guys, but (As an admin) I want to know that the packages I am installing are certified by the group that released it and verifiable through a gpg signature or an md5 key. GPG is a way to prevent man in the middle attacks. Quit bitching about security that you don't understand.
