Hello. I made a tool to do pkg signing with an (ssh/gpg) agent.

If this has already been done and it's common knowledge I apologize for 
the noise and you can ignore the rest. I couldn't find anything on 
search engines.


It's a python tool and uses py37-paramiko (readily available as a 
package or port) for the agent protocol. Unfortunately a small patch was 
required to add RSA sign flags support, I don't know if they will accept 
the feature request. If anyone on the python team has any influence with 
them and could impart on them its usefulness I would be grateful.

Thanks.
