Sorry, but these clarifications only make it even clearer to me that I do
not want this.

The size measurements show that the RPMDB increases by 20%, which is a lot.
Also, the unit "bytes" in that sentence seems to be wrong, because the next
sentence speaks of a 5 MB increase.

And this "feature":

| Having all files signed with Fedora keys would enable integration with for

claims that those signatures can be used by a remote system to enforce an
unmodified Fedora, which is a blatant violation of GPLv3 requirements.


Keylime cannot be used to enforce anything, it will only monitor and there are already many tools that already do the same thing (aide, rpm -v etc).

There are zero GPLv3 violations here. Any violation would need to be enacted outside of the project.
