When executing gpg --check-sigs, there are reports of bad
signatures. What makes a signature bad? For example, on a key I
signed that has several UIDs, one of my signatures on one UID is
reported as bad, but the rest are fine. I looked in the docs, but
didn't find anything... hope I'm not missing something obvious.
It means that one of the following things is true:
* The key alleged to have made the signature did not make the signature.
* The data on which the signature was made is different than the
original data.
* Someone made an error in the OpenPGP implementation.
