While trying to follow:
https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/create-your-own-core-image#3
I get an error when trying to run 'snap create-key':
```
$ snap create-key
Passphrase:
Confirm passphrase:
error: /usr/bin/gpg --batch --gen-key failed: exit status 2 ("gpg: lookup_hashtable failed: Unknown system error\ngpg: trustdb: searching trust record failed: Unknown system error\ngpg: Error: The trustdb is corrupted.\ngpg: You may try to re-create the trustdb using the commands:\ngpg: cd ~/.gnupg\ngpg: gpg --export-ownertrust > otrust.tmp\ngpg: rm trustdb.gpg\ngpg: gpg --import-ownertrust < otrust.tmp\ngpg: If that does not work, please consult the manual\n")
```
Following the poorly formatted instrions in the error message doesn't work for me, but I suspect perhaps snapd doesn't actually use my `.gnupg` in $HOME? In any case, my ~/.gnupg/ setup seems to be working fine, and without any corruption.
My snap version is:
```
snap 2.26.14
snapd 2.26.14
series 16
ubuntu 17.04
kernel 4.10.0-26-generic
```
Any hints as to how I can fix this? |

Additionally, before running 'snap create-key', the 'snap keys' command returned an empty list, but did not error. After running the above command, 'snap keys' now prints the same gpg error message.
