I have packages, built and signed by (earlier) rpm software, installed and
these packages no longer exist as *.rpm files. New rpm complains about pgp
signatures and ignores these installed packages.
Saying "it's not a bug in rpm" doesn't help as it was a bug in earlier rpm
(right?) and new rpm+sequoia doesn't accept what old rpm produced. In kernel
terms that would be similar to "breaking userspace".
rpm -e uninstalls things, so that's not a option.
Is there a way to remove signatures from local rpm db for such packages, so rpm
will treat these as unsigned? (and hopefully won't complain, just these
packages won't be verifiable - not sure if that would work this way though).
Or re-sign packages in local rpm db with own key?
Some better solution should exist than "try to find packages and reinstall, we
wish you luck".
