I believe it's likely that your local keyserver isn't listening
properly, but dirmngr's errors/warnings are certainly confusing.

I've started a thread over on gnupg-devel to try to clean up the dirmngr
error messages at least.

If you can replicate that sequence of log messages (in particular, the
"Unknown host" weirdness) with a minimal example on some system
configuration, it'd be great to follow up over there.  I've been unable
to replicate it myself with dirmngr 2.2.2-1.
