You've asked about this before.

Do you have a problem with finding the .asc file?

Is this about the Firefox 31.4.0 ESR version or about another Firefox version?

I am using Firefox 31.4 ESR and I do not get successful verification using shasum1.asc or shasum256.asc from http://download.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/31.4.0esr/.

Is this a problem with verifying the SHA512SUMS file with the check sums or with verifying the Firefox tar.bz2 archive?

Works fine for me.

What do you get?


sha512sum -b firefox-31.4.0esr.tar.bz2 0604424eb99fa2b8cc3bb78b29284936925b4077afa1eebe7fa7453a9ead1e91d541578e954cd11da42fe4902d38693c33713de83458b6792801e4d3df1a13ba *firefox-31.4.0esr.tar.bz2

The Firefox tar.bz2 archive? are for linux are they not? I am using the shasum1.asc or shasum256.asc as the signature. Can you also provide the publi key signer for Firefox? I beileve it to be releases@mozilla.org

more options

Yes, I'm on Linux. I haven't checked the MAC Firefox DMG file(s), but I assume that those are OK as well.

The KEY file is available from the same directory where the .asc files are stored.

Don't you still have that KEY file from your previous question thread?

I am not able to verifiy firefox31.4 ESR for the Mac

You first need to install the PGP certificate in the KEY file as that is used to verify the other .asc signature files.

You can find directions in your previous thread.

Your "gpg -v --verify SHA512SUMS.asc" command has not validated Firefox.

I am using Gpgtools with the public key releases@mozilla.org and I am also not getting validated.
