gpg -a -o public.gpg.asc --export [long_key_id]

Export private key:

gpg --armor --export-secret-key [long_key_id]  > private.gpg.asc

Unknown Trust

ultimate vs unknown

You can edit your trust of a key:

gpg --edit-key user@useremail.com
edit
#  (trust level 1-5)
list
quit
gpg --edit-key user@useremail.com

     trust: unknown          validity: unknown

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

gpg> save

gpg> quit
