The way I'm doing this is (for VMware RPMS) is to install an old
statically-linked version of RPM specifically for signing such old
packages. Is there a better way? It's something a pain to remember to
resign with a different tool and if you forget obviously the package
gets silently corrupted which is a terrible failure mode.
