what pool are you using in particular? it looks to me like you're using "ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net" However, https://sks-keyservers.net/overview-of-pools.php#pool_ha suggests that there is no guarantee that servers in that pool all offer hkps. If you want hkps, you should use hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net (conveniently, that happens to also be the default setting, which means it should be able to work with no keyserver setting in either ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf or ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf. I'm closing this bug report because i think it's due to the configuration error described above, but feel free to re-open it if you have a different configuration from the one i've surmised. just let me know what your configuration is! All the best, --dkg
