--status-fd N gives the file descriptor to write status messages like 

  [GNUPG:] GOODSIG 53B620D01CE0C630 Werner Koch (dist sig) <dd9jn at gnu.org>
  [GNUPG:] TRUST_ULTIMATE

which are to be used by all automated systems (e.g. scripts).  IF you
don't use this option no status lines are emitted at all.

All other output is for humans; it may be redirected to a file
descriptor other than 2 using --logger-fd M.  This is slighly different
from re-directing stderr directly because it works only on the internal
log functions and is used for all output which might be useful to see in
log files.
