Fedora Media Writer Building and Signing

Description

Whenever a new version of Fedora Media Writer is available, it is required to build and code sign it.

Action

#. Get a windows code signing key from private ansible repository. It is in the ansible-private/files/code-signing/ directory

  1. Convert the .cert formatted certificate to .pxf format:

    $ openssl pkcs12 -export -in code-signing.crt -inkey code-signing.key -out authenticode.pfx

  2. Clone the Fedora Media Writer git repo:

    $ git clone https://github.com/MartinBriza/MediaWriter.git

  3. Checkout the release tag for which the executable to be created:

    $ git checkout tags/<release_number>

  4. The script to build and sign the executable is available at dist/win/build.sh

  5. Get the mingw-mediawriter from koji. Make sure the version is the one that needs building and signing.

  6. Install the remaining packages that are listed under PACKAGES variable in build.sh script.

  7. Export CERTPATH to the location where the .pfx file is located and make sure its named as authenticode.pfx and export CERTPASS to the file that contains the password used in creating .pvk file.

  8. Run the build.sh script:

    $ ./build.sh

cd "build/app/Fedora Media Writer.app"
for dylib in $(find  . -name "*dylib")
do
codesign -s "Developer ID Application: Fedora Gilmore" -v $dylib
done
# Now sign framework bundles
for framework in $(find  . -name "*framework")

# Sign the app bundle
codesign -s "Developer ID Application: Fedora Gilmore" -v .

# Create the dmg
cd ..
rm -f FedoraMediaWriter-osx-*.dmg

hdiutil create -srcfolder "Fedora Media Writer.app"  -format UDCO -imagekey zlib-level=9 -scrub \

Issue with signing

If the build is done but it is not signed then try editing the build.sh and add -askpass argument for all the osslsigncode commands and run the script, when it asks for the password you can enter the password that was used in creating .pvk file.
