Command line on Linux to verify Electrum

[Ayanamirs]

Both .asc and .tar.gz on /home

gpg --verify Electrum-3.0.6.tar.gz.asc Electrum-3.0.6.tar.gz

Is that a question... or a statement?

Also, you forgot to mention that you need to import ThomasV's key first before you can verify...

Code:

gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 7F9470E6

NOTE: seems the MIT keyserver isn't working right at this point in time... But here is working: http://pool.sks-keyservers.net/pks/lookup?search=0x7F9470E6&fingerprint=on&op=index

What about now?

"Go to Electrum website, click on download, then click on ThomasV, this will redirect you to the MIT website, click on a 7F9470E6, this will redirect you to ThomasV public key, select all and save it as ThomasV.asc.

Go back to Electrum website and download Electrum-3.0.6.tar.gz and its signature Electrum-3.0.6.tar.gz.asc

Copy all the 3 files to the same folder, open the terminal and use command 'cd' to navigate to that folder and run these commands.

gpg --import ThomasV.asc

gpg --verify Electrum-3.0.6.tar.gz.asc Electrum-3.0.6.tar.gz

If the message returned says Good signature and that it was signed by ThomasV with a fingerprint that ends with 7F9470E6, then the software is authentic."
