More DSA Questions

Asked by David Nelson

I completed the first step of DSA signing thanks to Andy, but I'm completely lost in trying to sign my individual updates. I read "http://sparkle.andymatuschak.org/documentation/pmwiki.php/Documentation/PublishingAnUpdate", but it didn't help me. Can you tell me the _exact_ Terminal script used to complete this task?

Thanks, again...

David Nelson

Say you've got an update. You've zipped it or tar'd it or something'd it. Now say that archive's name is foo.zip. Say also that you've already run generate_keys.rb and you've got a private key by the name dsa_priv.pem.

You would sign foo.zip with the sign_update script like so (assuming your working directory is the root of the sparkle distribution):

ruby "Extras/Signing Tools/sign_update.rb" path/to/foo.zip path/to/dsa_priv.pem

Obviously, adjust the paths as necessary to be appropriate for where your files are.
