the shortest possible version: you are trying to fetch the key from a keyserver that is broken / dead, or you don't have a keyserver listed in ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
edit the file ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf and find the line that starts with the keyword "keyserver", and make sure you list one that works. Then gpg --recv-keys should work as expected.
I have this in my gpg.conf: keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net
keyserver option should be put in ~/.gunpg/dirmngr.conf now. Also, considering recent news[0], it should be keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org [0]: <https://gist.github.com/rjhansen/67ab921ffb4084c865b3618d6955275f> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
