Do you have more than 2 sub-keys?

 From my document... (Chapter 14)

   As of now, good keyservers are:

      keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net
      keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net

   Here one must be careful not to create more than 2 sub-keys. If you do,
   keyservers on pgp.net will corrupt your key. Also only one keyserver can
   be specified in $HOME/.gnupg/options.

   Unfortunately, the following does not work any more:

      keyserver search.keyserver.net
      keyserver pgp.ai.mit.edu

This has been discussed here many times.

I, for one, created a new GPG key for Debian application to avoid this 
problem :-(
