Hi,
i just experienced the same problem, same difficulty understanding the
man pages. Googling suggested to try a different keyserver.
I had to try several ... until i found one, that succeeded.
Apparently, the cause was found to be in the rules in place at the
servers. Some do no longer allow connections from sources without
self-signed pubkeys. But just adding the corresponding switch did not
help either. i had to find a server with an older config in place (like
ubuntu's).
