Verify Binaries

Usage:

This script attempts to download the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from https://bitcoin.org.

It first checks if the signature passes, and then downloads the files specified in the file, and checks if the hashes of these files match those that are specified in the signature file.

The script returns 0 if everything passes the checks. It returns 1 if either the signature check or the hash check doesn't pass. If an error occurs the return value is 2.

./verify.py bitcoin-core-0.11.2
./verify.py bitcoin-core-0.12.0
./verify.py bitcoin-core-0.13.0-rc3

If you only want to download the binaries of certain platform, add the corresponding suffix, e.g.:

./verify.py bitcoin-core-0.11.2-osx
./verify.py 0.12.0-linux
./verify.py bitcoin-core-0.13.0-rc3-win64

If you do not want to keep the downloaded binaries, specify anything as the second parameter.

./verify.py bitcoin-core-0.13.0 delete
