<zacts>hello
*davexunit tries to figure out how to sign a string with the daemon's private key
<davexunit>I guess that since 'guix publish' needs to sign narinfos and such, it needs to be run as root.
<davexunit>not surprising, I suppose.
<mark_weaver>well, not necessarily as root, but as some privileged user who has access to the private key.
<davexunit>yeah
<davexunit>more accurate
<mark_weaver>in principle, it would make sense for guix-daemon to make the signatures, but I don't remember how it actually works.
<davexunit>yeah, maybe I can do that. I haven't been able to figure out how to actually sign stuff
<mark_weaver>*sh
<mark_weaver>ugh
