Subject: bug#30143: UX: print warning if substitute server is not authorized
Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2018 13:17:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <idjpo681xyo.fsf@bimsb-sys02.mdc-berlin.net> (raw)
Suppose I add example.com as a substitute server by passing
“--substitute-urls=https://example.com” to the daemon or the Guix
command line. I haven’t authorized the signing key, so Guix won’t
accept any of the substitutes from example.com.
Currently, Guix does not make it obvious to the user that a requested
substitute server is ignored because its key is not authorized. We
should print a clear warning in this case.
(guix scripts authenticate) already includes “validate-signature”, which
aborts with an error if the key is not authorized, but we don’t seem to
use it.
