I think that distributing unsigned MSI is better solution, so system
would't complain about invalid signature.
Provided SHA-1 is good enough IMHO.
GnuPG asc file would be nice(some Linux distros do that), but I don't think
that It's necessary.
For time being i have manually extracted files, and updated links. It works
fine :-)
Thanks for your time (and quick answer).
