+        <ul>
+            <li>
+                Make sure every installation sees same meta data and packages
+            </li>
+            <li>
+                Even when central infrastructure (archive signing keys) is
+                compromised
+            </li>
+        </ul>
+
+        <p>
+            ⇒ verifications are directly transferrable to all installations

+              Approach: some additional infrastructure

+          <ul>
+              <li>
+                  Central Certificate Transparency-like log server
+              </li>
+              <li>
+                  Distributed “monitor” for verification of reproducible builds
+              </li>
+          </ul>
