Why did you rename the file? Not that it matters, gnupg will ignore extensions anyway, but .asc is usually used for base-64 encoded files. The signature on the source is in binary format. >I get: >gpg: Signature made Tue Mar 15 10:29:15 2005 CST using DSA key ID 57548DCD >gpg: BAD signature from "Werner Koch (gnupg sig) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" > >>From the second line above, I take it that the "BAD" indicates some >problem. What's wrong? The signature file doesn't match with the source file. This could mean that the source was modified, a corrupt download, or a corrupt signature file. Most probably, however, your browser unpacked the gzipped file but didn't rename it. How big is the file? It should be around 3.8 MB. -- ir. J.C.A.
