Bug Description
In my environment, the following doesn't work:
pwa@pwa-
gpg: requesting key 3F055C03 from hkp server subkeys.pgp.net
?: subkeys.pgp.net: Host not found
gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn't connect: Success
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0
But if I replace the hostname by its IP address, it does work.
I'm running Kubuntu 12.04. and gpg 1.4.11. The command cited above seems to work for most people, but it doesn't work for me.
