Hi, It is stated as dead simple tool for verifying signstures but I pull my hair for two days unable use this tool for verify Dnscrypt proxy on ubuntu 20.04. I installed from Ubuntu Universe package and after installation try use it but ubuntu terminal spit out message: "minisign: command not found" I can compile it and install it from source but there is no releable information how to verify download (pgp). What am I doing wrong ???

minisign doesn't seem to exist in Ubuntu 20.04

$ apt-cache search minisign
golang-github-jedisct1-go-minisign-dev - Minisign library for Golang

The only package they have is a development library for a programming language called Golang. Unless I missed something, there's no minisign tool available by default in Ubuntu.

You can compile the code from here, or use any of the other implementations such as minizign.

Maybe Ubuntu packages exist somewhere else, but I use a Mac so you know Linux better than I do :)

Yes that's true there isn't any minisign package in Ubuntu. I can compile from source but I don't know how to verify download from github. I can't find any PGP signature or key ...
