{pve} Test Repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally, there is a repository called `pvetest`. This one contains the
latest packages and is heavily used by developers to test new
features. As usual, you can configure this using
-'/etc/apt/sources.list' by adding the following line:

+SecureApt
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+We use GnuPG to sign the `Release` files inside those repositories,
+and APT uses that signatures to verify that all packages are from a
+trusted source.
+
+The key used for verification is already installed if you install from
+our installation CD. If you install by other means, you can manually
+download the key with:
+
+ # wget http://download.proxmox.com/debian/key.asc
+
+Please verify the fingerprint afterwards:
+
+----
+# gpg --with-fingerprint key.asc
+pub 1024D/9887F95A 2008-10-28 Proxmox Release Key <proxmox-release@proxmox.com>
+ Key fingerprint = BE25 7BAA 5D40 6D01 157D 323E C23A C7F4 9887 F95A
+sub 2048g/A87A1B00 2008-10-28

+
+If this shows the exact same fingerprint, you can add the key to the
+list of trusted APT keys:
+
+ # apt-key add key.asc
