Instructions:
On an RPM-based system, after downloading the public key, use rpm to install it. Run the following commands as root.
1. Import the public key into the RPM database:
rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY-PCBE
2. You can verify the key installation by running:
rpm -q gpg-pubkey --qf '%{NAME.EN_US}-%{VERSION.EN_US}-%{RELEASE.EN_US} --> %{SUMMARY.EN_US}\n'
3. To manually verify an RPM package, you can run the command:
rpm --checksig pbeagent*.rpm
Using the wild card character “*” means that the command verifies all .rpm files in the directory.
Note: If you are using a Windows machine and you save the contents to a text file, it will be necessary to remove the Control-M (M) characters
