    for some reasons, I can’t verify the signature of the files.

    I downloaded tail-signing.key from https://tails.net/tails-signing.key

    then made a keyring file.

    ran gpgv --keyring ./tails.keyring tails-amd64-6.4.img.sig tails-amd64-6.4.img

    it gave me error saying using EDDSA key 26D26… Can’t check signature: No public key.

    I even tried using the same keyring for 6.3 and it was fine. Only for this version I;m having trouble.

    Anyone would please confirm the SHA256SUM if you could verify the signature?

      Some Linux distros you can right click the file and there is an option to auto verify the key is correct. Linux mint is one. Use a live USB.

      My steps which worked:

      gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ~/tmp/trustedkeys.gpg --fingerprint
      gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ~/tmp/trustedkeys.gpg --import ~/tmp/tails-signing.key
      gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ~/tmp/trustedkeys.gpg --verify tails-amd64-6.4.img.sig
      

      Checksums:

      sha256sum tails-amd64-6.4.img tails-amd64-6.4.img.sig  ~/tmp/tails-signing.key
      f8c36fad61a7f8c0fce45202369f85499a1c90f1bc7e5e5b320f2de1c3fa4e8d  tails-amd64-6.4.img
