This looks too dependent on Fedora infrastructure.
What about those who want to re-build the package from the spec file on their
computer (and download all necessary sources using spectool)?
What about those who want to re-build the package using OBS and download_files
source service?
I think, the main PGP public key's checksum should be embedded into spec file
and checked against to make sure all re-downloaded sources are correct.
