Updated - Verify Offline Bitcoin Bundle on Ubuntu
by

Sorry for the double post, I just didn't think anyone would answer my old question (Since it's old).

I'm having difficulty GPG-verifying my offline Armory installer for Ubuntu, using the suggested steps:

    $ cd Downloads # the directory containing the *.deb
    $ gpg --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 98832223
    $ sudo apt-get install dpkg-sig
    $ dpkg-sig --verify *.deb

The first three steps are working, since I can verify the standard Ubuntu installer:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ dpkg-sig --verify *.deb
Processing armory_0.92.3_ubuntu-32bit.deb...
GOODSIG _gpgbuilder 821F122936BDD565366AC36A4AB16AEA98832223 1412393663

But for the offline bundle I just get this:

    ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ dpkg-sig --verify *.deb
    E: Cannot find *.deb: no such file
    ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ ls
    Alan-C.-Reiner-Offline-Signing-Key-alan@bitcoinarmory.com-0x98832223-pub.asc
    armory_0.92.3_offline_ubuntu_12.04-32.tar.gz

So I extracted the .tar.gz and cd OfflineBundle, which gives me these files:

    ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Downloads/OfflineBundle$ ls
    Alan-C.-Reiner-Offline-Signing-Key-alan@bitcoinarmory.com-0x98832223-pub.asc
    armory_0.92.3_ubuntu-32bit.deb     
    dpkg-sig_0.13.1_all.deb
    Install_DoubleClick_RunInTerminal.sh
    libqt4-designer_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb
    libqt4-help_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb
    libqt4-scripttools_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb
    libqt4-test_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb
    libqtassistantclient4_4.6.3-3ubuntu2_i386.deb
    libqtwebkit4_2.2.1-1ubuntu4_i386.deb
    python-psutil_0.4.1-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
    python-pyasn1_0.0.11a-1ubuntu1_all.deb
    python-qt4_4.9.1-2ubuntu1_i386.deb
    python-sip_4.13.2-1_i386.deb
    python-twisted_11.1.0-1ubuntu2_all.deb
    python-twisted-conch_11.1.0-1_all.deb
    python-twisted-lore_11.1.0-1_all.deb
    python-twisted-mail_11.1.0-1_all.deb
    python-twisted-news_11.1.0-1_all.deb
    python-twisted-runner_11.1.0-1_i386.deb
    python-twisted-words_11.1.0-1_all.deb

I'm pretty sure it's armory_0.92.3_ubuntu-32bit.deb that is the file that should have the GOODSIG after it, but when I run dpkg-sig --verify *.deb, I just get this:

    Processing armory_0.92.3_ubuntu-32bit.deb...
    Processing dpkg-sig_0.13.1_all.deb...
    Processing libqt4-designer_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb...
    Processing libqt4-help_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb...
    Processing libqt4-scripttools_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb...
    Processing libqt4-test_4.8.1-0ubuntu4.8_i386.deb...
    Processing libqtassistantclient4_4.6.3-3ubuntu2_i386.deb...
    Processing libqtwebkit4_2.2.1-1ubuntu4_i386.deb...
    Processing python-psutil_0.4.1-1ubuntu1_i386.deb...
    Processing python-pyasn1_0.0.11a-1ubuntu1_all.deb...
    Processing python-qt4_4.9.1-2ubuntu1_i386.deb...
    Processing python-sip_4.13.2-1_i386.deb...
    Processing python-twisted_11.1.0-1ubuntu2_all.deb...
    Processing python-twisted-conch_11.1.0-1_all.deb...
    Processing python-twisted-lore_11.1.0-1_all.deb...
    Processing python-twisted-mail_11.1.0-1_all.deb...
    Processing python-twisted-news_11.1.0-1_all.deb...
    Processing python-twisted-runner_11.1.0-1_i386.deb...
    Processing python-twisted-words_11.1.0-1_all.deb...

Am I missing something?  What should I do?  I'm almost tempted to just replace the armory_0.92.3_ubuntu-32bit.deb file that came in the offline bundle with the one that came with the standard armory installer, but I'm worried that the rest of the files in OfflineBundle may have been tampered with as well.

I think you installed armory. Try it to be certain before you start using it.

No, I want to verify that it hasn't been tampered with.   The installation part is easy. Thanks anyhow.  (or did I misinterpret you?)

I have seen this post, but it didn't help me:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=474119.0

Everything seems to be going fine until this step:  dpkg-sig --verify *.deb
when I get the error E: Cannot find *.deb: no such file

So I extracted armory_0.92.3_offline_ubuntu_12.04-32.tar.gz to Downloads, and I still got an error.

Then I changed directory to the OfflineBundle, and this time I just got a list of "Processing ___________.deb"  without a GOODSIG line.



To test that the other three steps were done properly, I downloaded the normal installer, and tested that, and it all worked fine. 


Does this mean that I installed a faulty version of Armory, or am I just doing something terribly wrong?

Thanks!

Re: Delete Armory files to save space?

Can you delete any files associated with armory once it's online, without messing up any of the features?  Someone told me I could delete the log files and bootstrap.dat.


You can delete bootstrap.dat.old and log files. Deleting log files won't make any difference, the size is just few KB and it would be useful for later - if something happens. Roll Eyes

   ~~MZ~~

Where is bootstrap.dat.old supposed to be located?  I only have:

Code:
velociraptor@JurassicPark:~/.armory$ ls -a
.                   atisignedannounce           bootstrap.dat.torrent
..                  bitcoin-0.9.3-linux         databases
armorycpplog.txt    bitcoin-0.9.3-linux.tar.gz  multipliers.txt
armorylog.txt       bittorrentcache
ArmorySettings.txt  blkfiles.txt

Notice how the output when you run apt-get update only has precise-security. I would expect there to be lines that say precise in addition to the lines that say precise-security.

Are you having trouble installing any other software? What does your /etc/apt/sources.list file look like? Here is an example sources.list file.

For dpkg-sig, you should at least have the following lines in sources.list:

Code:
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise universe
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates universe

If you edit sources.list, make sure you run sudo apt-get update again.

Perfect! That works. 

Thanks.
