Hi guix!

This email is motivated by https://social.tchncs.de/@mray/103492792270770063 who complained that the instructions didn't work (not in a very nice way :/).

In fact, the video is slightly outdated, showing a different command for importing the gpg key.

There was also a confusion as the gpg fingerprint appears on a separate paragraph, as if it were part of the output, leading to a failure due to the lack of providing a fingerprint. This points to an issue in the video generation script.

Anyway, this long fingerprint is not necessary anymore, since the script now suggests to import from savannah. My patch from yesterday also proposes to add an option that is easier to type to let the script do it. We should update the video accordingly.

Thanks :)
