FWIW, the evil hackers will also need to sign their packages with Red Hat's GPG keys (or other widely used GPG keys) in order for it to succeed -- at least, if you leave GPG signature checking of packages enabled. So, I'm not sure this is as serious as you suggest. (It would still be a good thing to improve though.) Yes, unfortunately, the default yum.conf from Fedora does not have gpgcheck turned on. Not in Rawhide b/c the packages in rawhide are not signed. However, i am hoping for gpgcheck=1 to be the default for FC3 yum.conf. Bringing this forward as a reminder. If it isn't possible then please remove "blocker". removing as a blocker. No way to get those code written and tested in that short of a time. all packages are gpgsigned - the mirrorlists shouldn't be a problem by themselves. |
