Re: questions about updates to linux-f10-pango

Oops, it seems I forgot to do "reply-all."  In case others are following,
errr here it is:

Thanks for the timely reply.

What are the necessary steps to have the package validated or otherwise
trusted?  It would be a waste if Peter Littmann really have done the
community a favor by going through the trouble of setting up the Fedora 10
box to create a package that at least some people have been dieing to find.
I also understand the necessity to make sure the port is in fact genuine
lest introduce a significant security concern.  So what needs be done for
the community to help validate the package?
