+ verify that the signed file you've downloaded is actually the
version you intended to download, and not an older, also properly
signed one.

See tools that take this into account:
  - Thandy (already mentioned by Moritz)
  - our design for incremental updates:

  - TUF:

Other than this, our current take on it is, I believe, making it
easier to verify OpenPGP detached signatures. E.g. we're working to
make it work flawlessly on the GNOME desktop.

Cheers,
