Gpg: keyserver failed

far-bound · July 18, 2019, 6:54am

Anyone try and verify the pgp of their tor download latey?

For two days in a row now, I cannot get the key:

$ gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 0x4E2C6E8793298290
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No data

But, I can just go to the key server and find it no prob?

## Terminological Note

"OpenPGP" refers to the OpenPGP protocol, in much the same way that HTML refers to the protocol that specifies how to write a web page.  "GnuPG", "SequoiaPGP", "OpenPGP.js", and others are implementations of the OpenPGP protocol in the same way that Mozilla Firefox, Google Chromium, and Microsoft Edge refer to software packages that process HTML data.
