Sebb commented on TOBAGO-1834:
------------------------------

Yes, GPG works. But it's fragile.

If the sig file includes the data (i.e. the sig is not detached), GPG will 
validate just the sig file, and will ignore the archive file.
In that case, GPG will not show the warning message and to most people it will 
look as though the archive file has been verified.

See the URL cited earlier.

It's an unlikely scenario, but we should not be publishing incorrect 
instructions.

> so for the KEYS file please.
