No problem. Thanks for the reply.
I set a new GPG key in my Savannah profile a few days ago. I just
rolled
a new release of Bison,
I guess you already emailed sysadmin with the new key, since there is
bison-2.4.1a.tar.gz on alpha?
If that's the same as ftp-upload, then yes, I emailed it to them, and they
referred me here concerning the Savannah problem.
so I'd like my key to show up in Bison's keyring
on Savannah, but it hasn't yet.
I don't know how the savannah keyrings are maintained, if they are an
automatically-updated copy of what sysadmin has for alpha/ftp.gnu.org
(evidently not), or something else.
When I set my original GPG key (now expired) on Savannah, I got the
impression it was automatically propagated to Bison's keyring. I'm not
sure why it isn't happening now.
I had searched the archives and found someone else reporting a similar
problem:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers/2007-02/msg00042.html
Sylvain Beucler fixed this apparently by enabling GPG support. I don't
see any switch for that in my Bison admin page, but maybe I missed it.
Maybe a Savannah admin has to do it.
(Nor do I know what difference they
make to anything, for that matter.)
Although users can obviously download the keys from the key servers, I
think some download from here. At least, I've done that in the past.
Anyway, the keyrings should be up-to-date or removed, in my opinion.
