In the historic CVS-based build system which predated what we now use, we could do GPG key verification at the time of downloading and importing a new tarball. This makes FAR more sense to me than checking the signature on the same tarball every build. We'd put the set of trusted GPG keys in the repository alongside the spec file, using some standard filename, and the build system would try check the .asc against the keys when downloading (or uploading? I can't remember) a new tarball. This would ensure the tarball uploaded to the lookaside cache was trusted.
