So everyone how wants to build libvirt from source and cares about data integrity has to unpack/verify the rpm? Come on... :-) Signing tarballs is nothing new nor rocket science. In times where the NSA tries to f*ck everyone at least some basic cryptographic arrangements should be applied. I know other projects are sloppy regarding signed releases too, this does not mean that libvirt should follow their bad example.
