I reproduced a race still, and passed those comments upstream. See the upstream bug. The net is that it is *much* better than it was, but still can have races.

The result is you will see transient verify failures with output like below. using '--lock-once' seems to improve the problem, but not to entirely fix it. gpg: Signature made Fri 10 Jan 2014 05:41:43 PM UTC using DSA key ID 437D05B5 gpg: 12: read expected rec type 10, got 0 gpg: lookup_hashtable failed: trust database error gpg: trustdb: searching trust record failed: trust database error gpg: Error: The trustdb is corrupted. gpg: You may try to re-create the trustdb using the commands: gpg: cd ~/.gnupg gpg: gpg2 --export-ownertrust > otrust.tmp gpg: rm trustdb.gpg gpg: gpg2 --import-ownertrust < otrust.tmp gpg: If that does not work, please consult the manual See the attached 'verify-race' to show the issue.
