See this example where I change the trust value to "2" as the program currently
enables (with one field):
$ echo "ABCDABCD....ABCD:3:" | gpg --import-ownertrust
gpg: changing ownertrust from 6 to 3
$ gpg --edit-key "Dor"

There's a string written "unknown" - why is that? Maybe something's missing?
See another example when I set the trust value to Ultimate with two fields:
$ echo "ABCDABCD....ABCD:6:6" | gpg --import-ownertrust
gpg: changing ownertrust from 3 to 6
$ gpg --edit-key "Dor"

Now we can see the string "ultimate" instead of "unknown".
This is why I think there are 2 fields in the --export-ownertrust command.
