As far as binary package signing is concerned: I haven't tested it but it is supported in the newest dpkg/apt in my experimental. As far as I know there are no longer any issues in them, at least on i386/x86_64 Snow Leopard and Lion once Fink is fully bootstrapped -- there were some problems using them for bootstrapping, as `dpkg` seemed to want an older version of `dpkg` to be already around, and I hadn't completely fixed them yet. Nonetheless, I have been using them on my Fink build for over a year without problems. I have not set up any effort to systematically test them on all supported versions of Fink. Sjors
