Linus,

Looks good:

$ gpg --import torvalds.pgp
$ gpg --edit-key Linus trust
gpg --edit-key Linus trust
 1 = Don't know
 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
