Wire version: 3.39.3653

Files involved:

  • Wire-3.39.3653_x86_64_b6fcbacaf153678b1d30698d5d34d034.AppImage
  • sha256sum.txt.asc
  • 3.39.3653.tar.gz.sig
  • wire-sig.txt: I extracted the GPG signature block from sha256sum.txt.asc here
  • releases.key: Dowloaded from here

Expected behavior:

Run "gpg --verify" and get "Good signature" message

Actual behavior:

Run "gpg --verify" and get "Bad signature" message

Details:

$ gpg --verify wire-sig.txt ../Applications/Wire-3.39.3653_x86_64_b6fcbacaf153678b1d30698d5d34d034.AppImage
