Don't know if there is a similar lib for python. I already solved the issue using this small 'expect' script that signs all rpms from the current directory: <--- cut here ---> #!/usr/bin/expect -f set timeout -1 spawn sh -c "rpm --resign *.rpm" match_max 100000 expect -exact "Enter pass phrase: " send -- "my_nifty_passphrase\r" expect eof </--- cut here ---> I was just wondering if there was some other trick that involves only rpm, not external tools.
