The simplest solution would be if we sign the db files (automatically) on
gerolde. Of course this is less secure than signing every single package by
its packager; but on the other side it would be easy to implement and there
would be no overhead for packagers.

If this is to provide any security, we need to stop using md5! md5 is okay when trying to detect corrupted downloads, however it is possible to find collisions and thus build a "bad" package that has the same md5 as the good package.
