As said here: http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/faqs.html#q6.19 the gpg version 1.0.6 didn't parse trust packets correctly, so for that version, creation of signed tags using the generated key fails.
Signed-off-by: Carlos Rica <jasampler@gmail.com> --- This was already discussed in a previous message from Sven, who runs that old version of gpg: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/51291
The page describing the bug was found by Johannes after some research: http://colabti.de/irclogger/irclogger_log/git?date=2007-07-01,Sun&sel=482#l814
