IGTF Authority Trust Anchor Installation Bundle version 1.134
-----------------------------------------------------------------
(release 1, issued on Tuesday, 04 Mar, 2025)

This installation bundle contains the trust anchor sources for
all IGTF distributed authorities. It must be configured before
use, as explained below. Use "make install" to actually copy a 
configured source repository to the specified location.

The structure of this installation tar-ball is as follows:

  <this-installation-bundle-VERSION>/
   README
   configure
   Makefile
   src/
     accredited/
     unaccredited/
     experimental/

where the source trust anchors (all of them) are located in their
appropriate subdirectories under "src/". Note that of these trust
anchors, ONLY THE ONES UNDER "src/accredited/" ARE PART OF THE
IGTF TRUST FABRIC. The others you install antirely at your OWN RISK.

This bundle is primarily intended for re-packagers. Relying parties 
that use the pre-built and signed (policy) RPMs directly need not
configure or install this bundle package. The RPM distribution
is self-consistent and complete.

Note that specific individual CAs can also be installed directly from 
their individual tar-balls in the "accredited/tgz/" directory.

This tar-ball can be obtained from the PMA repositories, e.g. from
  http://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/igtf/current/




Configuration of your distribution
----------------------------------
Use the "./configure" script to select the profiles and authorities
you want to be installed in your trust anchor repository. After the
initial configuration step, you will also need to "install" the
trust achors in the target area using the "make install" command.

Configure
---------
The "./configure" script takes some of the arguments usually encountered
in the GNU autoconf context, such as "--prefix". Ther are two
arguments specific to the IGTF distribution:

  "--with-profile="
  The "profiles" correspond to *all* Authorities accredited by any of the 
  IGTF member PMAs under a specific profile:

    classic -- Traditional X.509 Authorities with Secured Infrastructure
    slcs    -- Short-Lived Credential generation Services
    mics    -- Member Integrated Credential generation Services
    iota    -- Identifier-Only Trust Assurance Services - PLEASE read
               profile first at https://www.eugridpma.org/guidelines/IOTA/

  Notes:
  * there is no collective installation for experimental or unaccredited 
    CAs, as there are no assertions made by the PMAs regarding such 
    experimental or unaccredited authority trust anchors.
  * You can repeat the "--with-profile=" stanza to select multiple
    profiles

  Example:
    ./configure --with-profile=classic --with-profile=slcs && make install

  "--with-authority="
  Add specific named authorities to the trust configuration. The names
  of these authorities can be found in the ".info" file associated
  with the trust anchor sources. You can repeat the "--with-authority="
  stanza to add multiple authorities. 
  Specific authorities are added *in addition* to those selected with
  the "--with-profile=" option.

  Example:
    ./configure --with-profile=classic --with-authority=FNAL_KCA

  "--prefix"
  The location where the root certificates and the information files
  will be stored.
  

  Full syntax: 
    [--prefix=path]          Installation path
                             default: /etc/grid-security/certificates
    [--with-mkdir=path]      name of mkdir program supporting -p
                             default: mkdir
    [--with-install=path]    name of the BSD install programme
                             default: install
    [--with-profile=profile] selected CA accreditation profile
                             default: (none)
                             (multiple profiles can be selected)
    [--with-authority=ca]    selected a specific (additional) CA
                             default: (none)
                             (multiple CAs can be selected)


Installing your distribution
----------------------------
After configuration, you will have a "Makefile" in the current
directory. You should "make install" these to copy the files
to the specified trust anchor directory. This directory
is by default set to "/etc/grid-security/certificates/", but
may be directed to other locations.

In this directory, you will now find for each Authority:

 <hash>.0    -- the PEM-formatted certificate of this authority
 <hash>.info -- Authority meta-data, suh as the common alias, the
                web site URL, and an email address for concerns
 <hash>.crl_url
             -- location (http) of the current CRL issued by
                this authority
 <hash>.signing_policy
             -- the EACL formatted list of namespace constraints,
                specifying with subject names are subject to the 
                IGTF managed namespace. The assertions of the IGTF
                only extend to subject names within this namespace
 <hash>.namespaces
             -- alternate format of the same namespace constraints.
                See http://www.eugridpma.org/documentation/ for
                a full description of this format.


Uninstall
---------

Automatic un-install of the bundle is not supported. Please look 
carefully at the CHANGES file provided with each release to
determine which CAs have been obsoleted or withdrawn.
