Weird "gpg: BAD signature" ??? #132

Closed mouse07410 closed 2 years ago

mouse07410 commented 2 years ago

MacOS Monterey 12.6, MacTeX-2022.

$ tlmgr --version
tlmgr revision 63068 (2022-04-18 07:58:07 +0200)
tlmgr using installation: /usr/local/texlive/2022
TeX Live (https://tug.org/texlive) version 2022

Here's what I get:

/Library/TeX/texbin/tlmgr: signature verification error of /usr/local/texlive/2022/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb.main.2fdb20874d4fe1a3267a99dbbf353926 from https://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb: cryptographic signature verification of
  /tmp/zD2rb719zt/R_X05scTqs
against
  https://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb.sha512.asc
failed. Output was:
gpg: Signature made Tue Sep 20 19:53:46 2022 EDT
gpg:                using RSA key 4CE1877E19438C70
gpg: BAD signature from "TeX Live Distribution <tex-live@tug.org>" [ultimate]

Please try from a different mirror and/or wait a few minutes
and try again; usually this is because of transient updates.
If problems persist, feel free to report to texlive@tug.org.

Retrying the operation usually works. Any idea or help...?

I think this is usually a mirror sync problem, but you can report it to the tex-live list as the error message says. As far as I know there's nothing I can do about it.

After modifying ~/.curlrc, I haven't seen this problem again yet. People at CTAN aren't eager to respond, and since the problem seems to be remedied, at least for now, I'm not going to chase it down. Thanks!
