You need to add the person to your public keyring.  If you need help
setting up your keyring, go to http://www.gnupg.org.  The software
should be installed with FC1.  Once you have your keyring setup, add the
following to $HOME/.gnupg/gpg.conf
keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve

Now when you click on the icon gpg will check the keyserver and download
it assuming it resides on the keyserver.  this doesn't mean that you can
automatically "trust" that person, but it will prevent the broken lock.
