To followup, how are the plans (stated in the referenced discussion) about signing ELPA packages? AFAIK, ELPA currently re-builds package tarballs every time a new tag appears in the source repo. No signature checks, nothing to prevent potential breach in the source repo. And ELPA tarballs themselves are not signed. Same for non-GNU ELPA, AFAIK. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at . Support Org development at , or support my work at
