--- Comment #1 from Andre Heinecke <aheinecke at gnupg.org> ---
Hi,

it's a bit of a usability issue here that causes confusion. But I think
Kleopatra actually tries to explain it already in the dialog and by calling it
"Certification trust".

In OpenPGP "Certification trust" and Validity are different things.
"Certification trust" is only needed for the "Web of trust".

If you want to directly mark a key as "Valid" (green) then you have to certify
it. This step basically means that you have verified that this is the right
signing key and then from now on it will show all signatures of that signing
key as green.

Regards,
Andre
