Yes, this sounds scary but it is expected.=C2=A0
<= br>
=C2=A0
With GPG you can assign a=
level of trust to keys.=C2=A0 If there=E2=80=99s a signature on my key from= a key
that you have marked as trusted (e.g. Ludo=E2=80=99s signature, and you mar= k
Ludo=E2=80=99s key as trustworthy), then the warning would change or disapp= ear.
The warning just indicates that there is no =E2=80=9Ctrust path=E2=80=9D to= my key.

If this were a forged signature you would see a scarier validation
error, not just a warning.


Ok, than= ks for clarifying =F0=9F=99=8F=C2=A0
