Hi Paul,

none of the debian package in the repository is signed as far I known.
At this moment we choose the way number 2.

But could someone show me where is the Packages.gz file generated? I 
mean the source file /python, java, perl, ???/ uff, the spacewalk is mix 
of languages ;)

	best regards
		Peter
