This repository provides mostly neuroscience-related packages to be used on
Debian_ systems (or Debian-derivatives like Ubuntu_). It contains both unofficial
or prospective packages which are not (yet) available from the main Debian_
archive, as well as backported or simply rebuilt packages also available
elsewhere. Please see the :ref:`faq` for more information about the goals of
-this project.

Once this is done, you have to update the package index. Use your favorite
about which package version is available for which release and architecture,
please have a look at the corresponding package pages.

-Package authentication
-----------------------
-
-When you start using this repository, you probably get warning messages
-like this::
-
- The following signatures couldn't be verified because
- the public key is not available.
-
-Or you will be asked questions like this over and over::
-
- WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
- ...
- Install these packages without verification [y/N]?
-
-This is because your APT installation initially does not know the GPG
-key that is used to sign the release files of this repository. It is easy to
-make APT happy again:
-
-1. Get the key. Either download the `repository key from here
- <_static/neuro.debian.net.asc>`_
- or fetch it from http://wwwkeys.pgp.net (2649A5A9).
-
-2. Now feed the key into APT by invoking::
-
- apt-key add #file#
-
- Where `#file#` has to be replaced with the location of the key file you just
- downloaded. You need to have superuser-privileges to do this (either do it
- as root or use sudo).
+After this initial setup you probably also want to configure your package
+manager to recognize the NeuroDebian archive key. With this key the package
+manager can verify that packages haven't been modified and are identical with
+the ones in the main NeuroDebian archive, regardless of which mirror you
+downloaded them from. The NeuroDebian key id is **2649A5A9**. If you need further
+help setting up package authentication, please take a look at
+:ref:`corresponding FAQ <sec_pkg_authentication>`.
