I don't think signing remotely is going to be possible, also I don't
see the point of it. We anyway have to download the package in order
to test it, so we wouldn't really gain anything.

I use a script to download, sign and upload signature, then I test the
package locally before pushing it to the repos.

Just my two cents.

Cheers,

Tom
