Try this option:
--allow-non-selfsigned-uid
Allow the import of keys with user IDs which are
not self-signed, but have at least one
signature. This only allows the import - key
validation will fail and you have to check the
validity of the key my other means. This hack
is needed for some German keys generated with
pgp 2.6.3in. You should really avoid using it,
because OpenPGP has better mechanics to do
separate signing and encryption keys.
HTH.
