If there are any RPMs signed by the old key they'll need to be investigated. Maybe they shouldn't be used any longer. Or maybe they're still needed. One example of this is the shim RPM where the same build could be used for many Fedora releases. In this case you'll need to untag the RPM from `coreos-pool`, run a `koji distrepo`, which will remove that RPM from the repo metadata, and then re-tag it into the pool. The RPM in the repo will now be signed with a newer signing key.
If there are any packages in the output, there are two possible cases:

1. **The package is signed by multiple keys** including an older one. This is OK, but add it to the untaglist anyway so it gets retagged into `coreos-pool` with a newer key/signature. You'll need to untag the RPM from `coreos-pool`, run a `koji distrepo` (which will remove that RPM from the repo metadata), and then re-tag it into the pool. The RPM in the repo will now be signed with a newer signing key.

Maybe we should give the full distrepo command:

Mostly LGTM - a few comments.

Also, let's update all links to the ansible repo to point to the new source of truth: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/ansible.git
