Sorry to jump in mid thread, but since this issue has popped up I
thought I'd mention a problem I've been having.
$ gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 330C4A75
gpg: requesting key 330C4A75 from hkp server subkeys.pgp.net
gpgkeys: key 330C4A75 not found on keyserver
gpg: invalid radix64 character 2E skipped
gpg: invalid radix64 character 3A skipped

gpg: invalid radix64 character 2E skipped

The weird thing is, it works for other people. Googling on the radix64
messages seems to indicate something to do with the headers returned
from the server. Why should I be the only one to get this.
Stock gpg from etch.
Any hints.
P.S. Also happens to keys: C02440B8 73CDA455
