Hello.

IO tried to fetch a key from WKD, in this case the key of Werner Koch.
Everytime I try this I get the following error:

---
$ LANG=C gpg -v --locate-key wk at gnupg.org 
gpg: pub  ed25519/63113AE866587D0A 2018-09-28  wk at gnupg.org

Any hints what happens there?

This also happens when I use an empty Keybox with this commnd:
$ gpg -v --no-default-keyring --keyring=test/keyring.kbx --locate-key
wk at gnupg.org 

My GnuPG-Version knows ed25519 as you can see below:
---
$ gpg --with-colons --list-config curve
cfg:curve:cv25519;ed25519;cv448;ed448;nistp256;nistp384;nistp521;secp25
6k1

My GPG-Version:
---
$ gpg --version --no-greeting 
gpg (GnuPG) 2.3.6
libgcrypt 1.10.1-unknown
