ProtonMail bridge installation for a newbie












0















Just installed Ubuntu 18.10 two weeks a go and it's my first Linux distro.
Everything's working fine and I want to start playing with the terminal.



So I want to install this still in beta ProtonMail bridge for Thunderbird and the instructions are asking me to copy this :



sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/debsig/keyrings/E2C75D68E6234B07
sudo gpg --dearmor --output /usr/share/debsig/keyrings/E2C75D68E6234B07/debsig.gpg bridge_pubkey.gpg


Problem is that I always get this response :



gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership on homedir '/home/ulfberht/.gnupg'
gpg: can't open 'bridge_pubkey.gpg': No such file or directory
gpg: dearmoring failed: No such file or directory


Other information that might help you understand my problem, I tried :



ls /usr/share/debsig/keyrings/ and it gives me "E2C75D68E6234B07" correctly



I have installed debsig



bridge_pubkey.gpg is a document I have in my documents folder



As a sign of gratitude, here's the latest links to the linux bridge :



Deb: https://protonmail.com/download/protonmail-bridge_1.1.0-1_amd64.deb

RPM: https://protonmail.com/download/protonmail-bridge-1.1.0-1.x86_64.rpm



Thanks in advance!

  • I don't think the format of your key-fetching string is right. Is there anything in /usr/share/debsig/keyrings/E2C75D68E6234B07? (ls /usr/share/debsig/keyrings/E2C75D68E6234B07 will tell us)

  • Terminal doesn't do anything when I copy ls /usr/share/debsig/keyrings/E2C75D68E6234B07

  • Ok, from where do you execute those commands? If it is not from the directory where bridge_pubkey.gpg is located, it will not find it like that.

  • Ok I think you helped me find the problem. I have the document in my /home/ulfberht/Documents/ProtonMail/bridge_pubkey.gpg. I will try to use this instead
