This leaves me pretty nervous.  Is there an argument to pass in to
specify a keyring with public keys to trust?  Without that, it is
presumably using ~/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg, which is about trust of
identity rather than trust to provide code to run on my machine. :(

If there's a good way to avoid that, this looks like a good thing to
do, though.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
