The Sign step globbed build/output/images/*.img*.xz. That is the classic compressed raw image and nothing else, so a build using image-output-iso (.iso) or image-output-qcow2 (uncompressed .img.qcow2) matched nothing, gpg was handed the literal pattern and the job died: gpg: can't open 'build/output/images/*.img*.xz': No such file or directory gpg: signing failed: No such file or directory That is every cell of the SDK build, which uses exactly those two extensions. Collect the artifacts with find (*.img*.xz, *.iso, *.qcow2), sign each one separately - --detach-sign takes a single input, and this way each artifact gets its own .asc - and fail with a directory listing when there is nothing to sign, instead of letting gpg report a missing file that was never a file. The passphrase moves to env rather than being interpolated into the script. Signed-off-by: Igor Pecovnik <igor@armbian.com>
Purpose of This Repository
The Armbian Linux Build Framework creates customizable OS images based on Debian or Ubuntu for single-board computers (SBCs) and embedded devices.
It builds a complete Linux system including kernel, bootloader, and root filesystem, giving you control over versions, configuration, firmware, device trees, and system optimizations.
The framework supports native, cross, and containerized builds for multiple architectures (x86_64, aarch64, armhf, riscv64) and is suitable for development, testing, production, or automation.
Looking for prebuilt images? Use Armbian Imager — the easiest way to download and flash Armbian to your SD card or USB drive. Available for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
