No contradiction at all.  The signature is good, that means that the
content in the signature matches what GPG says it should be in the
hash value, however, it is saying that the signature was created by an
untrusted key, meaning that you don't have a trust level assigned to
that key, or you're not a signer on the key.  Now you said the key was
yours, and you'd imported it using the gpg plugin, did you remember to
tell GPG that it was your key, and that you trust it explicitly?  I've
not used the GPG plugin myself, but when I migrated my keys from PGP
to gnupg, I had to set my key as trusted.
