- If, when you try the above `--edit-key` command, you get the error
|
||||||
|
`Need the secret key to do this.`, you can manually specify trust for the key in
|
||||||
|
`~/.gnupg/gpg.conf` by using the `trust-key [your key ID]` directive.

- If, when using a previously provisioned YubiKey on a new computer with `pass`, you see the
|
||||||
|
following error on `pass insert`:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
gpg: 0x0000000000000000: There is no assurance this key belongs to the named user
|
||||||
|
gpg: [stdin]: encryption failed: Unusable public key
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||

you need to adjust the trust associated with the key. See the above bullet.

- If you receive the error, `gpg: 0x0000000000000000: skipped: Unusable public key` or `encryption failed: Unusable public key` the sub-key may be expired and can no longer be used to encrypt nor sign messages. It can still be used to decrypt and authenticate, however.
