Create a GPG Key
GPG Stands for Gnu Privacy Guard
For a more thorough explanation on GPG, see GPG How To
First, install gnupg
sudo apt-get install gnupg
The GPG key is primarily used for signing Debian packages (.deb). To create a GPG key, use this command in a terminal:
$ gpg --gen-key
Follow the instructions carefully. Choosing the default options is fine. Make sure to type in your real name and the email you want to have associated with your key. Choose a secure passphrase. If you loose the passphrase, there is no way to retrieve it.
Once you are done, you will need to publish your key to a server in order for it to be usable. First, you need to find out what your public ID is. To see all the GPG keys in your system, do:
$ gpg --list-keys
In this example, the public ID is F06EFAE2
pub 2048R/F06EFAE2 2012-11-12 uid Kaj Ailomaa (Debian/Ubuntu signing key) <zequence@mousike.me> sub 2048R/140030E5 2012-11-12
Now, publish your GPG key using your public ID:
$ gpg --send-keys <KEY ID>
It may take up to an hour before your key is published and ready to be used. There are alternative key servers to publish to, which may be quicker. For more info on that, please see GPG How To
