One solution, or start of a solution, is to tell the user about the signature checks, and how to go about verifying them in teh README text file, that most users come to expect in a package of software.
And if someone edits that out of the README?
put it int he file that pops up from the FTP server when you switch to that directory, am not sur what the file is called, but like when you switch to the pub/Linux directory on sunsite, it gives youa rundown of what Linux is and all. Then the person would hav to hack access to the FTp server to change that. And I assume ti is easier for the maintaner of the FTp site to keep track of that one readme, then it is to keep track of the readmes in all the ppackages. i want to know everything http://www.mcs.com/~nesta/home.html i want to be everywhere Nesta's Home Page i want to fuck everyone in the world & i want to do something that matters /-/ a s t e zine
