[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] OpenPGP: Function `pgpParsePkts` supports only "PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK" block, "PGP SIGNATURE" is needed (Issue #2512)

[Demi Marie Obenour]

> Is there a plan to add support for ASCII armored PGP signatures to librpm's internal implementation?

Highly unlikely.  The internal implementation is only for backwards compatibility with environments that for some reason are not willing to use the Sequoia implementation.  It has known bugs that almost certainly won’t be fixed.  To give just one example, revocation handling is not implemented at all.

> Or will an external implementation ("rpm-sequouia" backend) be required in future versions (e.g. next Fedora)?

It’s already the default in Fedora 38.
