@_oftc_jochensp:matrix.orgjochenspYad: well your trust chain includes downloading the key from the keyserver, probably over a secure protocol signed with other keys you got from somewhere and so on, all the gnupg does not know and thus issues the warning20:34:59
@_oftc_jochensp:matrix.orgjochensps/all the/all that/20:36:49
@_oftc_jochensp:matrix.orgjochenspYad: but then again the question is where does trust start. Do you trust the certificates in your browser or those in the operating system? Do you trust your computer hardware?20:38:37
@_oftc_Yad:matrix.orgYad Indeed, I was already typing: jochensp: ah right, so it's me trusting the HTTPS root certificates probably? (Since that's how I get the fingerprint of the GPG certificate) 20:39:19
@_oftc_jochensp:matrix.orgjochenspyes20:39:31
@_oftc_jochensp:matrix.orgjochenspyou can tell gnupg about that to remove the warning20:39:51
@_oftc_Yad:matrix.orgYad jochensp: Where does trust start? As the security expert Steve Gibson likes to say, it's never truly trust-no-one unless you pick up sand off the beach yourself. (To smelt into silicon wafers, and so on.) 20:40:02

@_oftc_Yad:matrix.orgYadjochensp: My mindfulness about validating the signature of F-Droid is based on, for example, how I managed to avoid the 2016 Linux Mint hack because I get my ISOs from their official BitTorrent torrent, rather than relying on a webserver. https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=299421:08:46
@_oftc_jochensp:matrix.orgjochensp Yad: nice, I didn't download isos for a long time, just package with apt :) 21:12:34
