Something like this: Make a test package on elpa.gnu.org (don't use a real one for the reason I mentioned about people currently not being able to install it without the key). Maybe do both a single-file one and a multi-file one. Generate a gpg key using gpg --gen-key. For testing, accepting all the defaults seems fine. Later we should think whether/when the key should expire, and whose name/email it should use (eg yours, or a generic elpa.gnu.org one). We also need to think about how to store the key passphrase, if things are to be signed automatically. Use that key to sign the test packages: gpg -ba -o FILE.sig FILE where FILE = foo.el or foo.tar Put FILE.sig in the same place as FILE on the server. Export the public part of the key you just generated: gpg --armor --export email@example.com > foo.key I think that's it for the server. On the client, try to install that package from Emacs. It should fail until you import the public key using M-x package-import-keyring.
