Hi,

I have a source where I download my trusted keys, I use the command line to import them/update them, I wanna sign those keys with a trusted level, but It would be nice If there are one liners for.
For exmaple:

gpg --import key.asc --trsuted-level=1/4

Is that possible?

    Hi Mitchel,

    You can't set the trust during import.
    Have a look at --import-ownertrust; it allows you to set the trust of multiple keys at once.

    Hi Mento,

    I know I can't now, but it would be a feature what I would like to have when I import keys.

    Is there some documentation about --import-ownertrust? I can't find anything about that?

    Hi Mitchel,

    we are not the developers of GnuPG – we are only compiling it for Mac OS X – so we can't implement a new feature. The GnuPG developers are here: https://gnupg.org/
    There isn’t much documentation of --import-ownertrust. You could look at man gpg2.

    Regards, Mento
