Bug Description

I installed eclipse 3.5.1 from synaptic, all went well, then I installed qbzr-eclipse and it gave a warning saying that the plugin isn't signed and therefore could be a security risk in the future.

I suggest signing the plugin when it gets released.

See attached screen shot.

When you get a moment take a look at this link:

It might be useful to get the plugin signed so that it can be more trusted during installation.
