This specifies the number of distinct signatures required to consider
each path "trusted".
Also renamed ‘--no-sigs’ to ‘--no-trust’ for the flag that disables
verifying whether a path is trusted (since a path can also be trusted
if it has no signatures, but was built locally).
Typical usage is to check local paths using the signatures from a
binary cache:
$ nix verify-paths -r /run/current-system -s https://cache.nixos.org
path ‘/nix/store/c1k4zqfb74wba5sn4yflb044gvap0x6k-nixos-system-mandark-16.03.git.fc2d7a5M’ is untrusted
...
checked 844 paths, 119 untrusted
Unlike "nix-store --verify-path", this command verifies signatures in
addition to store path contents, is multi-threaded (especially useful
when verifying binary caches), and has a progress indicator.
Example use:
$ nix verify-paths --store https://cache.nixos.org -r $(type -p thunderbird)
...
