Sebb created XMLBEANS-558:
-----------------------------
Summary: Download page gpg example needs second parameter
Key: XMLBEANS-558
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-558
Project: XMLBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sebb
It is important that the file being checked is also specified [1] on the gpg
command line [2]
If the second paramater is omitted, gpg can report success without actually
checking the main artifact. This should not happen on correctly constructed ASF
downloads, as we only provide detached sigs, but we should not be documenting
bad practise.
Note: the first example is correct, but the sample verification sequence omits
the second parameter in:
gpg --verify xmlbeans-bin-3.1.0.tgz.asc

[2] https://xmlbeans.apache.org/download/
