Hi,

According to the gnupg anouncement of November, the source-code package 
of gnupg contains signature files for several of its parts. Are there 
also signature files available for the binary packages?

Alternatively checksums can be used. But the checksums contained in the 
packages are only good for checking the data transfer; for security 
checking the checksums should be published independently.

Regards,

Peter
