Okay, in that case we agree :smile: 

I think the "nice" way of killing v3 support is letting the obsolete crypto those packages use make it effectively uninstallable due to being unverifiable. That would actually already be the case, if it wasn't for the MD5 header+payload digest being the only available non-signature means of verification for the payload in much of rpm 4.x too, all the way up to < 4.14. It's configurable already though.
