* bug#62230: File "elpa-packages.eld" not signed, unlike file "archive-contents"

Hello,

I have `package-check-signature` set to `all`. When I run the command
`package-vc-install`, it tries to download the file "elpa-package.eld"
from the archive.  However, this file is not signed, so the download fails.

When I disable the checking of signatures, the download succeeds.

It is possible to sign this file with the GNU ELPA key, just like the
file "archive-contents", which downloads successfully?

Thank you.

I assume you have configured `package-check-signature' or something like
that?  Because I don't appear to have any issues fetching the file.

It should be, but I actually don't know how it is generated or at least
I am missing something in elpa-admin.el.  I have Cc'ed Stefan who should
know.

Yes, that was an oversight  Should be fixed now,

The file now downloads successfully. I can see that it also downloaded
the signatures.

Thank you.
