It's cool. Where I'm working these days, I have to be really careful about software provenance. I remain confused that the RPM's you publish all have something like this in their 'rpm -qi' information. Notice that the 'Source RPM' they lise is not the suse91 SRPM, it's an 'el5' SRPM. I assume this is because you're doing your builds for RHEL with a tool like 'mock', that first rebuilds the SRPM you are working from as a new SRPM precisely to get tags and PGP signatures right, then builds the RPM's from that. $ rpm -qip ldb-tools-3.5.2-43.el5.x86_64.rpm warning: ldb-tools-3.5.2-43.el5.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID f4428b1a Name : ldb-tools Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 3.5.2 Vendor: Service Network GmbH, Goettingen Release : 43.el5 Build Date: Tue 06 Apr 2010 07:37:55 AM EDT Install Date: (not installed) Build Host: sam Group : Productivity/Networking/Samba Source RPM: samba3-3.5.2-43.el5.src.rpm Size : 11378307 License: GPL v3 or later Signature : DSA/SHA1, Tue 06 Apr 2010 09:38:12 AM EDT, Key ID d9921b1cf4428b1a Packager : SerNet Samba Team <sa...@sernet.de> URL : http://www.samba.org Summary : SerNet Samba ldb tools Description : This packages contains the tools to manage ldb databases -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
