Hi.

Not sure how easy this can be done, but debarchiver should allow to reject
weak crypto alog uploads, including:
- signatures on the dsc/etc. files being uploaded that use a too weak
  digest-algo for the signture itself
- a too weak certificate signature algos, i.e. the algo used for the key/uid
  and subkey binding signatures of the keys that are being trusted as
  uploaders
- .dsc/etc. files that contain too weak Cheksum entries, e.g. MD5 os SHA1 only.


Thanks,
Chris.
