Download a gzip compressed archive

----------------------------------

vmm could be downloaded from the `download page`_ at `SourceForge`_. To

extract the downloaded archive use ``tar xzf vmm-0.6.1.tar.gz``. This will

create the new directory :file:`vmm-0.6.1` in the current working directory.

Verify the downloaded archive

-----------------------------

If you have downloaded the archive from the download site you can

optionally verify the integrity_ of this archive.

In order to verify the integrity of the archive you have to download the

corresponding signature file (:file:`vmm-0.6.1.tar.gz.sig`) too.

The signature can be verified using GPG_ or PGP_.

For example to check the signature of the archive :file:`vmm-0.6.1.tar.gz`

you can execute this command ``gpg --verify vmm-0.6.1.tar.gz.sig``.

The tarball was signed by Pascal Volk (ID: CEC0904E).

You can fetch the public key from a key server using the command

``gpg --recv-keys 0xCEC0904E``.

Get vmm from the Mercurial repository

-------------------------------------

To get a tagged clone of the current vmm release from the Mercurial_

repository use:

``hg clone http://hg.localdomain.org/vmm/ -r vmm-0.6.1 vmm-0.6.1``.

This will put the files into the new created directory :file:`vmm-0.6.1`.

When you omit the ``-r vmm-0.6.1`` option, you will get the latest changes

from the `vmm repository`_. This code may work for you or not.
