Removing an RRTYPE for a DNS name causes an expired RRSIG for that record 1 month ago
I kept seeing warnings about an expired signature when running named-checkzone or dnssec-signzone and it took some searching before I found the reason. Recently I removed the records with type SPF from my zones since the recommended approach is to use TXT records with SPF data. The RRSIG records for the SPF records were left in the signed zonefile, but not updated so they expired and started to give warnings. The SPF records were for names that had other data too which seems to trigger this. Removing a record completely (no RRTYPEs left for the name) removes all signatures. The things in DNSSEC I haven't tested yet are a signed subzone, a ZSK rollover and a KSK rollover. Those will eventually happen too.
