Re: OOB + signature

Hi all!

2013/2/8 Rogelio Mita rogeliom...@activitycentral.com

 Thanks a lot Martín!.

 Perfect the answer!, then... we understand that the contents manifest file
 that is the result of build (ussualy .toc, that is used to update method,
 olpc-update) will also be affected by this process, is this right?.
 Because we no found place to verify this assertion in some documentation,
 only the specification of contents manifest, but found nothing about it,
 only the following lines that do not answer to our question:

 A contents manifest is just a convenience object for bundling a number of
 related directory objects; it should not be directly signed. Instead, the
 root directory object in the contents manifest should be the element which
 receives a signature.

 Thanks again!

 Regards!

 If you have the signing keys in the build machine, it's really easy.
 Set the .ini file to use the signing modules, tell it where the keys
 are, and it'll do it automagically for you.

 Any suggestions on this =) ? Thanks!
