[PATCH v2 00/15] ima: digest list feature

Finally, digest lists address also the third issue because Linux
distribution vendors already provide the digests of files included in each
RPM package. The digest list is stored in the RPM header, signed by the
vendor.

RPM's hardly universal, and distributions are in the process of moving
away from using it for distributing non-core applications (Flatpak and
Snap are becoming increasingly popular here). I think this needs to be
a generic solution rather than having the kernel tied to a specific
package format.
