Hello, |

This was my eight week in the GSoC for the project Gentoo-GPG. For the |
| 4 |
second half, I will be developing the new MetaManifest system that will |
| 5 |
provide an efficient and secure way to verify the integrity of Gentoo |
| 6 |
distribution. |

My work for this week was to: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
- Add signature verification to my MetaManifest script using the Gkeys |
| 11 |
interface from Gentoo Keys. |
| 12 |
- Add manifest verification that passes through all repo levels of the tree |
| 13 |
to my script. |
| 14 |
- Add the option for the user to verify the package manifests that include |
| 15 |
the DIST files by excluding them from the verification. |
| 16 |
- Made some test cases and added them to my test tree. |
| 17 |
- Debugged and optimised the script. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
My plan for next week is to: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
- Add more test cases according to my mentors' feedback. |
| 22 |
- Show my script to other Gentoo devs, as well, for more feedback. |
| 23 |
- Optimise, debug and fix according to the suggestions given from the above. |
