Verifying Releases

When downloading from a mirror it is recommended to verify the integrity of the downloads. This should preferably be done by verifying the OpenPGP compatible signature available from the main Apache site. The KEYS file contains the public keys used for signing the release. It is recommended that a web of trust is used to confirm the identity of these keys.

You can check the OpenPGP signature with GnuPG via:

gpg --import KEYS
gpg --verify apache-cxf-*.tar.gz.asc

It is also possible to verify the integrity of the downloads using the SHA1 checksum with:

sha1sum --check apache-cxf-*.tar.gz.sha1
