 From #4069:

 The section on checking the signature doesn't teach the user anything
 about what GPG actually does. We might as well just ship them SHA-1 hashes
 of the download files. We should plan to clean up the verifying-signatures
 page to explain trust chains, and extract key points from it into an
 updated version of this text.
