Rpm wants to verify signatures on query too, so the suggested fix is wrong.

This is a bit of a weird thing - the new behavior is kinda the right thing to do, but for the wrong reasons. The system is in inconsistent state during a transaction so it would be correct to block readers, but we're only read-locking it for the keyring, not queries themselves.

So I guess we'll need to try and do something about this.
