Configuring dirmngr

[Mario Figueiredo]

I'm having trouble configuring dirmngr to use a default keyserver.

The current configuration file at .gnupg/dirmngr.conf contains this
single line:

    keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu

However trying to use --recv-keys always fails:

    $ gpg --recv-keys 0x194b631ab2da2888
    gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
    gpg: Total number processed: 0

I can only make it work by using the deprecated method of explicitly
naming the keyserver:

    $ gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 0x194b631ab2da2888
    key 194B631AB2DA2888:
    32 signatures not checked due to missing keys
    gpg: key 194B631AB2DA2888: "Andreas Rönnquist
    <andreas at ronnquist.net>" not changed gpg: Total number processed: 1
    gpg:              unchanged: 1

What am I doing wrong in the dirmngr configuration file?
