There are 4 migrations in the Watchtower client database that free up disk space by improving the storage layout and prepare for future optimizations around the watchtower functionality.
Verifying the Release
In order to verify the release, you'll need to have gpg or gpg2 installed on your system. Once you've obtained a copy (and hopefully verified that as well), you'll first need to import the keys that have signed this release if you haven't done so already:
Once you have the required PGP keys, you can verify the release (assuming manifest-roasbeef-v0.16.0-beta.rc1.sig and manifest-v0.16.0-beta.rc1.txt are in the current directory) with:
You should see the following if the verification was successful:
gpg: Signature made Fri Feb 24 15:32:04 2023 PST
gpg: using RSA key 60A1FA7DA5BFF08BDCBBE7903BBD59E99B280306
gpg: Good signature from "Olaoluwa Osuntokun <laolu32@gmail.com>" [ultimate]
That will verify the signature of the manifest file, which ensures integrity and authenticity of the archive you've downloaded locally containing the binaries. Next, depending on your operating system, you should then re-compute the sha256 hash of the archive with shasum -a 256 <filename>, compare it with the corresponding one in the manifest file, and ensure they match exactly.
Verifying the Release Timestamp
From this new version onwards, in addition time-stamping the git tag with OpenTimeStamps, we'll also now timestamp the manifest file along with its signature. Two new files are now included along with the rest of our release artifacts: manifest-roasbeef-v0.16.0-beta.rc1.txt.asc.ots.
Assuming you have the opentimestamps client installed locally, the timestamps can be verified with the following commands:
Alternatively, the open timestamps website can be used to verify timestamps if one doesn't have a bitcoind instance accessible locally.
These timestamps should give users confidence in the integrity of this release even after the key that signed the release expires.
Verifying the Release Binaries
Our release binaries are fully reproducible. Third parties are able to verify that the release binaries were produced properly without having to trust the release manager(s). See our reproducible builds guide for how this can be achieved.
The release binaries are compiled with go1.19.2, which is required by verifiers to arrive at the same ones.
They include the following build tags: autopilotrpc, signrpc, walletrpc, chainrpc, invoicesrpc, neutrinorpc, routerrpc, watchtowerrpc, monitoring, peersrpc, kvdb_postrgres, kvdb_etcd and kvdb_sqlite. Note that these are already included in the release script, so they do not need to be provided.
The make release command can be used to ensure one rebuilds with all the same flags used for the release. If one wishes to build for only a single platform, then make release sys=<OS-ARCH> tag=<tag> can be used.
