For example, say you're going to QA apt (cause everyone wants to),
you'd find it in bugzilla and look at the entries there. You see that in Jason's latest comment there he's linked these two files:
https://mail.codegrinder.com/www/apt4/md5sum.asc
https://mail.codegrinder.com/www/apt4/apt-0.5.15cnc5-0.fdr.7.rh73.legacy.src.rpm
Download them both. Then run rpm --checksig -v (or just -Kv if you're lazy like me) on the rpm file. Assuming you already have Jason's key (and you probably don't yet, but we'll get to that later), you should get output like this:
Uhm, but that is a rh73 file, no? What if I want to test it on rh72 or rh8? Is no one working on these? Do I need to create them myself? I find the thread in bugzilla hard to follow myself...
I'm not against making apt rh8 rpms, I just not sure if that is what I should be doing or not, etc.
It appears slocate has made it to the fedora-testing phase, so I'll see if I can't help QA that at least...
