Migrating from PGP to GPG question

[Smith, Cathy]

Folks

I'm at the next step of signing the keys and creating the trust model.  I've signed 3 keys and set the trust.  When I list the keys, I get the following:

[ir at app1 ~]$ gpg --list-keys
gpg: checking the trustdb
gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, PGP trust model
gpg: depth: 0  valid:   4  signed:   0  trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 4u
gpg: next trustdb check due at 2020-02-29

What does it mean that the next trustdb check is due in 2020?  I'm not clear on how frequently the trustdb needs to be updated.  I assumed that the trustdb updated each time I imported a key, or when I set the trust on an imported key.


Thanks for your help.

Folks

We are starting to migrate from OpenPGP to GnuPG.  One of the batch jobs I have to convert uses:
	pgp +force

This is supposed to assume a "yes" to any interactive questions.  I wasn't clear after reading the man pages about the gpg --batch option.  Can someone tell me if the --batch and the --yes options are mutually exclusive?

Thanks.
