Any key created by GnuPG is automatically set to "ultimate" ownertrust
by default, on the assumption that this is your key, so you are willing
to believe any certifications that you make.
If you want the 2nd key to have some other ownertrust than the first
one, you should change that explicitly. But since it sounds like it is
your personal key (and your only key), i don't see why you'd want to
reduce the ownertrust from ultimate.
