Here are the SHA1 and SHA256 checksums:

  zABn8+60IbwXJHFAlipJCG31RQ8NPnHFW/VBotK57ys=  guile-gnutls-5.0.1.tar.gz

  9725a700f1007330ea09f5837e6077f03d912db1  guile-gnutls-v5.0.1-src.tar.gz
  sZAEfO4Gj2sipejUnKSaJCWtRZOQG5rIlA+IQrp/Fk8=  guile-gnutls-v5.0.1-src.tar.gz

Verify the base64 SHA256 checksum with cksum -a sha256 --check
from coreutils-9.2 or OpenBSD's cksum since 2007.

Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify guile-gnutls-5.0.1.tar.gz.sig

The signature should match the fingerprint of the following key:

  pub   ed25519 2019-03-20 [SC]
        B1D2 BD13 75BE CB78 4CF4  F8C4 D73C F638 C53C 06BE
  uid   Simon Josefsson <simon at josefsson.org>

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
or that public key has expired, try the following commands to retrieve
or refresh it, and then rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

  gpg --locate-external-key simon at josefsson.org

  gpg --recv-keys 51722B08FE4745A2

As a last resort to find the key, you can try the official GNU
keyring:

  wget -q https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg
  gpg --keyring gnu-keyring.gpg --verify guile-gnutls-5.0.1.tar.gz.sig

Use the .proof files to verify the Sigsum proof.  These files are like
signatures but with extra transparency: you can cryptographically verify
that every signature is logged in a public append-only log, so you can
say with confidence what signatures exists.  This makes hidden releases
no longer deniable for the same public key.

Releases are Sigsum-signed with the following public key:

  cat <<EOF > jas-sigsum-key.pub
ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAILzCFcHHrKzVSPDDarZPYqn89H5TPaxwcORgRg+4DagE
EOF

Run a command like this to verify downloaded artifacts:

  wget -q -Otrust.txt https://gnu.org/s/gsasl/sigsum-policy-20250309.txt
  sigsum-verify -k jas-sigsum-key.pub -p trust.txt \
        guile-gnutls-5.0.1.tar.gz.proof < guile-gnutls-5.0.1.tar.gz
