Most dbscripts commands are run with user privileges and those won't have write access to the trust db. Therefore when gpg tries to check it and write the last check time (or something else) into the file it will fail and display the following error:

gpg: trustdb rec 30: write failed (n=-1): Bad file descriptor gpg: trustdb: sync failed: Bad file descriptor

To avoid this we tell it not to do automatic checking.
