*putting on both my FESCo and rpm-sequoia package maintainer hats*

The issue which was voted on for blocker status by FESCo ("In order to
unblock, RPM must accept SHA-1 hashes and DSA keys for Fedora 38
(...)") has been resolved.
As far as I can tell, the anydesk case is different. It's not a
problem caused by the new crypto policy - the packages don't use a
SHA-1 signature - but happens because the Sequoia PGP implementation
is stricter about checking signatures for sanity / validity.
If I understand correctly, the packages are signed with a key that
fails validation, so I'm inclined to say "this is not our problem"
(and it also looks like this is an issue that's specific to this
third-party package vendor, in contrast to the original SHA-1 / DSA
issue which affected repositories that are officially endorsed by
Fedora Workstation).
