I still need to get some signature information into the tests before this is ready for review. |
This helps with more confident identification of an rpm. In theory, two rpms can be built that have the same purl string, and otherwise look identical in syft's output, but the PGP information would distinguish them as signed either by different keys, or signed at different times. In practice, this usually makes no difference since rpms tend to have unique name/version/release strings. This just gives increased confidence about the identity of the rpm found in the db.
