The package itself cannot be "additional". At least I've always
understood it that way.

Fair enough.

Also I noticed that the signatures are broken (0 byte files). I don't
think it even is PGP. In case you ever contact the upstream make sure to
mention this and the fact that they should have https.
I'm not sure about that tho, because the authors seem to negate the
value of HTTPS or at least point out "false sense of security".
