To import your gpg key into the grimoire keyring:
p4 edit gurus.gpg
gpg --export $KEY | gpg --import --no-default-keyring --keyring \
/path/to/gurus.gpg

To create the hash you have several options:
1) sha512sum from the hashsum spell
2) openssl >= 0.9.8: openssl dgst -sha512 $FILE
3) with gnupg:
gpg --print-md sha512 $FILE
that doesn't give the output in the format we want though, here's what I
use:
gpg --print-md sha512 $FILE | tr [A-Z] [a-z] | tr \\n ' ' | tr -d ' ' |
cut -d: -f2
