authenticating packages from PPA

[Mario Limonciello]

Jonathon,

At this point there is no authentication mechanism on the PPAs.  It is
planned to be added however.  My team has just been mirroring the PPA to
another location and resigning the release file with our gpg key in the
meanwhile.

Regards,

Mario
