gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found












0















I am trying to import the following key:




https://www.apache.org/dist/pig/pig-0.16.0/pig-0.16.0.tar.gz.asc




Trying to import using:



gpg --import pig.sig


But getting the following error:



gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0


I have tried removing line breaks but the error is still there. How can fix it? I am interested in finding out the fingerprint.

          From the file name I read that what you try to import is not a key, but a signature on a file pig-0.16.0.tar.gz. You cannot import a signature, but verify it instead:



          gpg --verify pig-0.16.0.tar.gz.asc


          You need to fetch the key before verification. The required key ID will be printed when not found during verification, and can be fetched from key servers by running



          gpg --recv-keys [key-id]


          Be aware that if you don't validate the key against a trusted source, it could be issued by anybody. Key servers don't perform any verification, and an attacker could have just created a key using a fake name and mail address and issued the signature you just try to verify.
