            Bug ID: 28204
           Summary: extend webapi / verification with forthcoming
                    signed-contents archives
           Product: elfutils
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: debuginfod
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: fche at redhat dot com
                CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

Efforts such as https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Signed_RPM_Contents
might look stalled, but some distro builds are experimenting with this stuff
already.   We may soon avail ourselves of RPMs that carry per-file IMA
signatures.  If so, we should extract those signature bits and pass them back
to debuginfod clients.  They may be able to offline verify the integrity of the
download, so as to not trust the debuginfod server.
