Description Jeremy Katz 2001-01-18 07:42:40 UTC 
adding additional signatures seems to be broken with rpm 4.0.2.

1012 katzj@rivendell:~> rpm -Kv xinetd-2.1.8.9pre11-1.i386.rpm
xinetd-2.1.8.9pre11-1.i386.rpm:
MD5 sum OK: c8ec559183ae44966e21c8820aacaa6a
gpg: Warning: using insecure memory!
gpg: Signature made Thu 19 Oct 2000 02:30:07 PM EDT using DSA key ID DB42A60E
gpg: Good signature from "Red Hat, Inc <security>"

gpg:          There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.

Enter pass phrase:
Pass phrase is good.

Comment 1 Glen Foster 2001-01-18 21:26:43 UTC 
This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Florence Beta-3
Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2001-01-22 07:09:30 UTC 
Note that this only happens when you have an RPM which was created and signed by
an older version of RPM that you then add a signature too.  In this case, the
HEADER_IMAGE tag exists, but we don't want to subtract the offset from the sigsize
Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2001-01-22 15:13:03 UTC 
This is a legacy issue with old packages, sign with rpm-4.0 or earlier as
workaround.

Deferred until after 7.1.
Comment 4 Jeff Johnson 2001-04-03 12:10:12 UTC 
This should be fixed in rpm-4.0.2 final.
