To conclude, neither revocation or expiry is particularly meaningful in the rpm 
context, only a very limited subset of OpenPGP spec is relevant to rpm. 
Revoking has been discussed at length here already, and while expiry is far 
simpler on the outset, tick of the clock will not remove expired software from 
the system so checking for it at the door would only make things weirder, 
*security* would not be improved in the slightest.
