572    @subsection Verify Detached Signatures
573    Most of the signature are detached, which means that the signature is separated from the data.
574    Usually you need to verify a detached signature when you have downloaded a software package or
575    an update of it. The steps to verify such a signature are easy. Just open the File Manager and
576    drag the detached signature in the File Manager window.
577    Now select the signature and select "Verify" either via the popup menu or the File menu.
578    In most cases you propably need to download the verification key, before you can verify the signature.
