Package: dirmngr
Version: 2.1.15-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
Running gnupg2 with dirmngr, sometimes failed to connect to keyserver.
I checked configuration files, automatically add "use-tor" to
~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf .
So, I stopped dirmngr via gpgconf, and delete this line of dirmngr.conf,
and running gnupg2 to access to keyserver, this succeeded.

But, after about 15min, re-run gnupg2 to access to keyserver, faied.
I checked dirmngr.conf again, added "use-tor" again (;´Д`)

At some ISPs, tor connection has rejected by default, maybe gnupg2
fails to connect to keyserver by default.

Best regards.
Ohta.
