Per the guidelines: Where the upstream project publishes OpenPGP signatures of their releases, Fedora packages SHOULD verify that signature as part of the RPM build process. If upstream doesn't provide a signature for their releases, then there isn't anything to verify. The guideline is also a SHOULD not a MUST, so it's not a blocker to lack signature verification (though I'd argue it should be a very strong SHOULD, if not a MUST. ;) It might be worth asking the upstream maintainer if they would consider signing the release tarballs. I have to guess that you're looking to use slim-fork, rather than the original slim? The latter hasn't seen any changes since 2013¹, while the former has been updated recently to 1.4.0² (as far as I can tell with some quick searching). ¹ https://github.com/iwamatsu/slim/tags ² https://sourceforge.net/projects/slim-fork/files/ -- Todd
