Development Notes about Kicksecure APT Repository.

Location[edit]

User Documentation[edit]

Reasons for using mv instead of cp:

  • higher transparency
  • file /usr/share/keysrings/derivative.asc is owned by the repository-dist package and overwritten by this file
    • easier to debug: Should there be an issue with /usr/share/keysrings/derivative.asc (such as key expired) then it would be easier for the user to check which version of the key has been originally imported

Maintenance[edit]

Update Valid-Untilarchive.org field, upload repository.

dm-resign-all
