File-integrity management for the Fedora distribution
has been the overarching theme of a number of different feature proposals
over the last year or so. In general, they have been met with skepticism,
particularly with regard to how well the features mesh with Fedora’s
goals, but also in how they will change the process of building RPM
packages. A new proposal that would allow systems to (optionally) perform remote
attestation is likewise encountering headwinds; there are several
different concerns being raised in the discussion of it.
