There's a sha256 hash in each build/pkgs/<package>/checksums.ini. So
long as the developer who commits checksums.ini has either (a)
verified the upstream signature or (b) used a secure channel, the
channel eventually used by the user doesn't matter too much.

(I doubt that anyone is actually doing this for http:// tarballs, but
there is a solution for this problem.)
