See the signature matches (ie the math works to verify that the package
has not been changed since the person with key 985a444b signed it).

This just means that *YOU* have not signed the key saying you trust it.
That's normal, you should *NOT* just sign every key you come across.
You should only sign keys of people you have personally met or worked
with.
