6 virt-index-validate - Validate virt-builder index file
7
9 virt-index-validate index
10
12 virt-builder(1) uses an index file to store metadata about templates
13 that it knows how to use. This index file has a specific format which
14 virt-index-validate knows how to validate.
15
16 Note that virt-index-validate can validate either the signed or
17 unsigned index file (ie. either index or index.asc). It can only
18 validate a local file, not a URL.
19
21 --compat-1.24.0
22 Check for compatibility with virt-builder 1.24.0. (Using this
23 option implies --compat-1.24.1, so you don't need to use both.)
24
25 In particular:
26
27 · This version of virt-builder could not handle "[...]" (square
28 brackets) in field names (eg. "checksum[sha512]=...").
29
30 · It required detached signatures ("sig=...").
31
32 --compat-1.24.1
33 Check for compatibility with virt-builder ≥ 1.24.1.
34
35 In particular:
36
37 · This version of virt-builder could not handle "." (period) in
38 field names or "," (comma) in subfield names.
39
40 · It could not handle comments appearing in the file.
