Hmm, gpgv is not quite equivalent to gpg --verify. With gpgv I get the
following error:

$ gpgv /tmp/gpgvmail-s.x /tmp/gpgvmail-d.x
gpgv: keyblock resource `/home/rostedt/.gnupg/trustedkeys.gpg': file open error
gpgv: Signature made Tue 04 Oct 2011 02:35:50 PM EDT using RSA key ID C66DAA00
gpgv: Can't check signature: public key not found


I don't have a "trustedkeys.gpg" file. Do I need to generate one?

Using gpg --verify, it doesn't complain:

$ gpg --verify /tmp/gpgvmail-s.x /tmp/gpgvmail-d.x
gpg: Signature made Tue 04 Oct 2011 02:35:50 PM EDT using RSA key ID C66DAA00
gpg: Good signature from "Steven Rostedt (Der Hacker) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>"
