Use the -u option to specify a key other than the default. This is in
the gpg(1) man page[1]:
--edit-key name
Present a menu which enables you to do all key related tasks:
sign
Make a signature on key of user name If the key is not yet
signed by the default user (or the users given with -u), the
program displays the information of the key again, together
with its fingerprint and asks whether it should be signed.
This question is repeated for all users specified with -u.
…
-u, --local-user name
Use name as the user ID to sign. This option is silently ignored
for the list commands, so that it can be used in an options
file.
