We only host scripts, not source or binary packages. It's upstream
job's to make sure their packages are safe since they provide the source.
We have our scripts signed with GPG and that's what we should use to
make sure that the scripts comes from us.
for small source, SHA256 is fine, but if you take large source files,
it could take a while to generate and verify using SHA256.
