Use a Python Script to Verify the Signature (discuss.tchncs.de)

Dear MicroG

The instructions https://lineage.microg.org/ say

Before installing the ZIP you should check that it has the correct signature. You have to use a Python script to verify the signature, available here. Install Python 3 (if not already done) and the required packages (as explained in the README), then run:

python3 update_verifier.py lineageos4microg_pubkey lineage-microG.zip

I have no experience of verifying signatures.

I have no experience of python.

I think I have downloaded and installed Python 3 correctly.

I have downloaded the microG zip.

Could you talk me through the steps to check the signature please ?

In case it's important - I am using macOS 10.13

Yours sincerely ROMMMELLL

Great to hear.

You can always address files via absolute or relative paths.

Relative:

cd /Users/rommmelll/Downloads/
adb sideload lineageos-recovery.img

or absolute:

adb sideload /Users/rommmelll/Downloads/lineageos-recovery.img

Maybe you want to learn a little more about paths to understand how to reference files.

I suggest you read a little further on that topic and play around with the terminal. Find some tutorial videos if that works better for you.
