How to trust a imported GPG key
$ gpg --edit-key <uid>
gpg> trust

Please decide how far you trust this user to correctly verify other 
users' keys (by looking at passports, checking fingerprints from 
different sources, etc.)

  1 = I don't know or won't say
  2 = I do NOT trust
  3 = I trust marginally
  4 = I trust fully
  5 = I trust ultimately
  m = back to the main menu

Your decision? 5
Do you really want to set this key to ultimate trust? (y/N) y

Please note that the shown key validity is not necessarily correct
unless you restart the program.

gpg> quit
