==Getting Signify== These release files have been cryptographically signed using the "signify" program. It is contained within OpenBSD, LibertyBSD and Bitrig. In Debian testing (and derived distributions like Ubuntu and Linux Mint), the program is called "signify-openbsd", and you can install it using the command $ sudo apt-get install signify-openbsd For other GNU/Linux distributions, you can compile a signify program from source https://github.com/aperezdc/signify ==Verifying the new key== If you have a copy of libertybsd.pub from the 5.6 release, you can verify the new key (libertybsd-58.pub) by downloading libertybsd-58.pub and libertybsd-58.pub.sig. Then (making sure that you have your copy of libertybsd.pub), use the command: $ signify -V -p libertybsd.pub -m libertybsd-58.pub ==Verifying the downloaded files== To perform the verification, download the files SHA256, SHA256.sig and libertybsd-58.pub. Then, check to make sure that the SHA256 sum matches the file you downloaded. If you downloaded install58.iso, then depending on your operating system, you will need to use one of the below commands to find the checksum of your file: $ sha256sum install58.iso $ sha256 install58.iso Check to make sure that this matches the checksum contained in SHA256. Then, to verify that the signature is correct: $ signify -V -p libertybsd-58.pub -m SHA256
