Every Debian member needs a GPG key of sufficient strength. In addition, all keys should be certified
so we can link them to a real-world identity.
The normal requirements are:
- the key should be type RSA and version 4 or greater
- the key should have the sign, certify and encrypt capabilities (subkeys are encouraged)
- the primary cryptographic material should be at least 4096 bits
- the UIDs used by an applicant to work in the project should be signed by at least two existing Debian members (1 for DM applications)
- as an alternative to the previous requirement, the key can be endorsed (see link at the bottom of the page) by multiple Debian Members (the number of required endorsements depends on the endorsement's age and nature)
- pseudonyms or anonymity are acceptable in certain circumstances
If the key does not meet these requirements, and you would struggle to create one which does, contact Front Desk.
Keys are first searched in hkps://keyring.debian.org. If no key is found,
then the key will be imported from hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com/. Please ensure that you
have sent your key to Ubuntu's key server. Sending public keys to keyring.debian.org will only work if your
key is already in Debian's keyring and will only be taken into account after the Keyring Maintainers
updated it. For Debian Maintainers and Developers, please remember to send your key to both servers.
This check will be approved manually by Front Desk as the application progresses.

The key has been signed by a Debian developer, but nm.debian.org website does not found it:
http://keys.gnupg.net/pks/lookup?op=vindex&fingerprint=on&search=0x4797FA721C351C9E
I've tried to push it directly on Debian Public Key Server:
gpg --keyserver keyring.debian.org --send-keys 0x4797fa721c351c9e
but still not found by the nm.debian.org website.
Did I miss something?
Thanks,
François |

Thanks for contributing to Debian. Applying for Debian Maintainer requires at least one signature from an existing member. Do you have any plans to fulfill this requirement? |
yes |
