Description

  • The command line scenario forces you to do OpenPGP verification. But if you don’t have the knowledge to understand what you are doing, it’s security depends on what the website tells you, and it’s thus not stronger than the checksum verification.
  • The graphical scenario also proposes you to do OpenPGP verification optionally.

So it seems difficult and maybe not worth it to give indications about the verification process done in each scenario.

Right, this also fits well in your proposal to have frames instead of buttons (that I haven’t answered yet). I’ll try this out.

Done in cdad7ea, please review. You can do for example:

git log -p origin/web/assistant...origin/web/9441-remove-verification-method

You’ll see that I branched this from web/9559-small-buttons as I needed the changes in there to work on this. So you should review first web/9559-small-buttons and then this one. I don’t expect web/9559-small-buttons to be problematic so it should be fine. Otherwise I’ll deal with the extra Git complication.
