\fB/etc/apk/keys\fR \- cryptographic keys trusted by apk
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The \fB/etc/apk/keys\fR directory stores the public keys which are trusted by apk
to verify cryptographic signatures for packages.\&
.PP
To trust a new key, simply add the armoured public key to this directory.\& The
keys can be generated with \fBopenssl\fR.\&
.PP
The APKv2 packages require the filename of public key to match the signing
key name in the package.\& APKv3 files are matched using the public key identity
and filename is not significant.\&
