And "I" is root?

This uses the standard keyring nothing else.

There is a difference between a process being capable of accessing something 
and a process trying to. Do you think root-gpg tries all keyrings it has 
access to automatically?

The easiest way to solve this should be to import the public key as root and 
mark it as "trusted-key" in the config file.
