Trying to figure out what's going on with a key update failure...

[Stephan Beck]

Update:
I actually tried


gpg2 --keyserver hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net --refresh-keys
4F765425380A9BBA5F0E0892CC9D1E072AC97369 --no-emit-version
--display-charset utf-8 --keyserver-options
ca-cert-file=~/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem use-temp-files keep-temp-files
verbose

as well (with variations), the use-temp-files=/tmp/tempfile.txt is I
used in my example below is plainly wrong.

Cheers

Stephan
