How do I import Trisquel public .asc to verify the ISO
Hello,
I tried Trisquel under VirtualBox and decided to install it on my notebook; how do I get and install Trisquel's public key on my gpg ring?

The "--list-packets" option for GPG (via Terminal) will show you the
public key that you need to import. This is what I get for one
particular ISO signature:
$ gpg --list-packets trisquel-mini_7.0-20140831_i686.iso.asc
:signature packet: algo 17, keyid B4EFB9F38D8AEBF1
version 4, created 1409521504, md5len 0, sigclass 0x00
digest algo 2, begin of digest a9 2d
hashed subpkt 2 len 4 (sig created 2014-08-31)
subpkt 16 len 8 (issuer key ID B4EFB9F38D8AEBF1)
data: [159 bits]
data: [159 bits]
Which means you can run:
$ gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys B4EFB9F38D8AEBF1
... and that key be imported into your keyring.
Hope that helps.
