[opensuse-project] new security checks of the installation media for 11.1

I'm the present maintainer of makeSUSEdvd[0] and am trying to figure out
what's changed between the release of 11.1a2 and 11.1 that results in
broken ISOs.
Previously, makeSUSEdvd was able to take the contents of any of the
release DVDs, allow extra packages/patterns to be added and, after the
contents file was updated and signed, would create a bootable ISO that
allowed installation without complaints.
However, there was a change somewhere between alpha 2 and gold master,
and this is no longer the case. Now, although the contents file on the
DVD is signed, the installation routines check the contents file on the
new image, claim it isn't signed and so aborts the installation.
So, if anyone has any helpful pointers as to what needs to be done to
satisfy the new 11.1 security checks, they would be most helpful.
