-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512
I'd like to announce a new version of V: version 99994 K
Changes included with V version 99994 K:
0x00]: Enforced rule: If there is no corresponding, valid, seal found for a
given vpatch, the vpatch is ignored.
0x01]: Updated for strict adherence to ``WoT variant'' principles.
0x02]: Updated to enforce removal of vpatches from flow unless all of its
antecedents are present.
0x03]: Changed behavior of press: If the given output press directory already
exists, the extant directory will be removed. A new output press
directory will be created in its place from the given name and the flow
will be pressed to that destination.
Testing:
The changes denoted above were tested with the Cucumber automation tests:
All Passed.
The Cucumber tests have been updated and are available via request.
Many republicans of The Most Serene Republic (TMSR~) contributed to the success
of this development cycle. For this, I personally extend my warmest gratitude.
You know who you are.
If you run into any problems, issues, or defects with this version please let
me know in #trilema or via email.
The following files are attached to this email with their PGP signatures:

as such: <wotid>.asc
For example: mod6.asc
0x04]: It's my first time running V now what?
First, check the available signed mirrors:
./v.pl m mirrors
Then run the intial sync of the vpatches and seals from a given mirror:
./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation
0x05]: Now that I've sync'd from a mirror, what's next?
The rest is up to you, either refer to the Users Guide for a detailed
description of each option in V or just execute V and read the long
help message:

0x00]: Introduction
Welcome to V!
This document is intended to be a users manual for mod6's perl implementation
of V. Contained herein the user will find usage explanations and examples of
the many options available.
0x01]: Getting Started
[ Check if perl is installed & version ]:
First, in order to execute the perl version of V, the user must have perl
version 5.005 or greater installed on the local UNIX environment. Perl
typically comes installed on many UNIX environments ahead of time, but just
to be sure, do the following from the command prompt:
perl --version
The user should see a lengthy version message that starts with something
like this:
`This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 2 (v5.18.2) ...'
If not, please install perl 5.005 or greater before going any further:
Ubuntu:
apt-get install -y perl
Gentoo:
emerge =perl-5.20.2.ebuild
[ Install CPAN ]:
If it is desired to at all use the graphing feature of V the user will need
to install CPAN [ `cpan` or `cpanm` or on gentoo, `g-cpan` ] so that the
Graph::Easy perl library can be installed.
Ubuntu:
apt-get install cpanminus
cpanm -i Graph::Easy
Gentoo [x86-64]:
emerge g-cpan
[ NOTE: Copy the next nine lines exacty as they are presented here and ]
[ then paste them into the shell. ]
cat <<EOF > /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords
# required by perl-gcpan/JSON-MaybeXS-1.003005::x-g-cpan
# required by JSON-MaybeXS (argument)
=dev-perl/Test-Without-Module-0.180.0 ~amd64
# required by perl-gcpan/Cpanel-JSON-XS-3.0115::x-g-cpan
# required by Cpanel-JSON-XS (argument)
=dev-perl/common-sense-3.730.0 ~amd64
EOF
g-cpan -i Graph::Easy
[ Install GnuPG ]:
The user will need GnuPG installed locally to run V, if you already have
this installed, skip this step.
Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install -y gnupg
[NOTE: 1.4.19 seems to be the oldest portage a recent gentoo ships with)]:
Gentoo:
emerge =gnupg-1.4.19
[ Install wget ]:
Many UNIX systems come with `wget` installed already, if yours does not,
install it:
Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install -y wget
Gentoo:
emerge wget
[ Install GraphViz ]:
In addition to Graph::Easy, if you wish to have V automatically build the
SVG graph in an HTML output file for you from the Dot language output file,
also output by V, you need to install GraphViz.
Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install -y graphviz
Gentoo:
emerge -a graphviz
etc-update [ enter -5 when prompted ]
emerge -a graphviz [ Answer Yes at prompt ]
[ Download V Archive ]:
Now you must obtain the V archive & signature from:
http://thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz
http://thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz.mod6.sig
Then check the PGP signatures supplied:
wget http://mod6.net/mod6.asc -O mod6.asc
gpg --import mod6.asc
[ Key Fingerprint: 0x027A8D7C0FB8A16643720F40721705A8B71EADAF ]
gpg --verify V-20170317.tar.gz.mod6.sig V-20170317.tar.gz
Then unpack the archive:
tar -xf V-20170317.tar.gz
[ Start V for the first time ]:
First, set the executable bit on v.pl:
chmod 0755 v.pl
Before you get any further, create a '.wot' directory (V looks for '.wot'
in the current working directory by default) and populate it with PGP public
keys manually. Name the pubkey files as such: <wotid>.asc
For example: mod6.asc
Now have V sync the required Seals and Patches directories from a signed
mirror. To view the list of mirrors, run the following command, the output
you'll see below.
./v.pl m v_mirrors
Mirrors signed by (mod6):
http://thebitcoin.foundation
As stated from mirrors output we can use URL from The Bitcoin Foundation to
sync V up-to-date with all the latest WoT entries (PGP Public Keys), VPatch
Signatures (Seals) and Vpatches.
To begin this initial sync do the following:
./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation
0x01]: V Usage
At this point the user has installed all of V's requirements, performed a
lookup of available signed mirrors, and sync'd the WoT, Patches and Seals.
What follows are usages and definitions of V's options with examples.
A note about option syntax. Any option enclosed with parenthesis ( ) is
required. The | separates any aliases of commands. Square brackets [ ]
denote optional options. Angle brackets < > denote required arguments to
a given command.
[ m | mirrors ]:
Arguments:
(<output_dir>)
The m or mirrors command is available to connect to the main V site:
http://thebitcoin.foundation Here, V can connect and pull the list of
available mirrors, signed by mirror administrators with L1 trust with
assbot and are in good standing in the WoT. Ask mod6 about this if you
want to run an authorized, signed mirror of V.
The mirrors command takes one required argument, an output directory for the
list of mirrors and the signatures so V can verify the list.
Example:
./v.pl m v_mirrors
Mirrors signed by (mod6):
http://thebitcoin.foundation
[ i | init ]:
Arguments & Options:
(mirror_url) [(<pdir> <sdir>)]
The i or init command is intended to be utilized the first time running V
on an environment. It takes one required option, and two optional
options. The required argument is a V mirror URL to sync from. Next, the
user can choose to use the default Patches ('patches' in the current working
directory) and Seals (.seals in the current working directory) directories
by not setting the two <pdir> or <sdir> options -- only passing a mirror URL
argument to the init command. If the user wishes to use their own named
directories, simply pass in those arguements in the exact order specified.
Example:
./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation
Full vpatch sync complete to "/home/mod6/patches"
Seal sync complete to "/home/mod6/.seals"
Example:
./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation wot vpatches seals
Full vpatch sync complete to "vpatches"
Seal sync complete to "seals"
[ wd | wotdir ]:
Arguments:
(<wotdir>)
The wd or wotdir command is available to point V at a specific WoT
directory rather than the default: '.wot' (in the current working directory)
There is one required argument: a WoT directory.
Example case, only mod6.asc exists in wot2:
./v.pl f wd wot2
genesis.vpatch (mod6)
bitcoin-asciilifeform.1.vpatch (mod6)
rm_rf_upnp.vpatch (mod6)
...
[ pd | patchdir ]:
Arguments:
(<patchdir>)
The pd or patchdir command is available to point V at a specific patch
directory rather than the default: 'patches', in V's present working
directory. There is one required argument: a vpatches directory.
Example case, only genesis.vpatch exists in patches2:
./v.pl f pd patches2
genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
[ sd | sealdir ]:
Arguments:
(<sealdir>)
The sd or sealdir command is available to point V at a specific seal
directory rather than the default: '.seals' (in the current working
directory)
There is one required argument: a seals directory.
Example case, only seals created by mod6 exist in seal2:
./v.pl f sd seals2/
genesis.vpatch (mod6)
bitcoin-asciilifeform.1.vpatch (mod6)
rm_rf_upnp.vpatch (mod6)
...
[ w | wot ]:
Options:
[ finger ]
The w or wot command will build a list of WoT entities eligable for
creating seals for approved vpatches. If a specific vpatch has not
been signed by a WoT entity, it is considered a 'WILD' vpatch, and will be
ignored. A vpatch must be signed by both Co-Chairs of The Bitcoin Foundation
to be considered approved for release.
Example:
./v.pl w

[ r | roots ]:
The r or roots command takes no options or arguments, unless a different
pd or patchdir is specified. It simply traverses the vpatch directories
contained vpatches and returns any root vpatches found in the topological
order.
Examples:
./v.pl r
Root: genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
Examples:
./v.pl r pd patches2
Root: genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
[ l | leafs ]:
The l or leafs command takes no options or arguments, unless a different
pd or patchdir is specified. It simply traverses the vpatch directories
contained vpatches and returns any leaf vpatches found in the topological
order.
Examples:
./v.pl l
Leaf: asciilifeform_add_verifyall_option.vpatch (asciilifeform, mod6)
Leaf: asciilifeform_maxint_locks_corrected.vpatch (asciilifeform, mod6)
Example case, only genesis.vpatch exists in patches2:
./v.pl l pd patches2
Leaf: genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
[ f | flow ]:
The f or flow command prints a topoligical flow of vpatches based on
precedence. By default will look for the 'patches' directory in the present
working directory of V and print the flow to stdout.
Example:
./v.pl f
genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)

[ p | press ]:
Arguments:
(<press_dir> <head>)
The p or press command is available to apply vpatches up through <head> in
topological order (see flow command) to an output directory <press_dir>.
There are two required arguments; an output directory for applied patches
<press_dir> and a vpatch <head> as the tip of the tree to press up through.
By default, no output is shown; however if the user supplies `v' or
`verbose' directly after the p or press command then the output from the
patching applcation process will be directed to stdout.
Example:
./v.pl p press_output genesis.vpatch
Example:

(<output_dotfile> [<output_svg_html_file>])
The g or graph command is available to produce a topoligical flow graph in
SVG format. The command has a required argument, the <output_dotfile>.
The output Dot language file can be used to generate the SVG HTML output
file with the `dot` binary. To produce the output Dot language file, the
perl library Graph::Easy must be installed on the local environment.
The optional command is given as a name for the <output_svg_html_file>.
If 'graphviz' is installed on the local environment, then the `dot` binary
should be available for V to invoke and generate the SVG HTML output for
the user automatically. If it is not possible for the user to install
'graphviz' on the local environment for whatever reason, the Dot language
output file can be copied to a seperate environment where 'graphviz' can be
installed. A command like this is used to generate the SVG HTML output
with the `dot` binary: `dot -Tsvg v-graph.dot > v-graph.html`.
Example:
./v.pl g vpatch.dot vpatch-graph.html
Printed Graphviz dot file to vpatch.dot
Executed `dot` and built svg html output file: vpatch-graph.html
Example case, build a graph from an alternative WoT, Patches and Seals
directory:
./v.pl g vpatch-graph2.dot vpatch-graph2.html wd wot2 pd patches2 sd seals2
Printed Graphviz dot file to vpatch-graph2.dot
Executed `dot` and built svg html output file: vpatch-graph2.html
[ v | version ]:
The v or version command simply prints the current version of V to stdout.
This command takes no options or arguments.
[ h | ? | help ]:
The h or ? or help command will print a longer, more verbose help message
to stdout. This command takes no options or arguments.
