        Well, checking Sources (and Packages) for Bug#637563 could, as
        it seems, be implemented (in, say, Awk or Perl) quite easily.

        Signature checking, as well as the Release parsing & dist/ files
        download is a bit more tricky.  Something like one or two rainy
        days of coding effort, I guess.
