Package: dirmngr
Version: 2.2.12-1
On a fresh install of buster from a week ago, dirmngr was working
before. Now when I try to do `gpg --recv-keys`, dirmngr fails:
$ gpg --recv-keys 00aa5556
gpg: connecting dirmngr at '/run/user/1000/gnupg/S.dirmngr' failed: IPC
connect call failed
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No dirmngr
/run/user/1000/gnupg/S.dirmngr existed so I deleted it. But I got the
same message. /run/user/1000/gnupg/S.dirmngr no longer exists, and does
not seem to have been recreated.

Well, its kind of a bug, but more of an error reporting bug. I had a
bad option in ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf from before I upgraded to buster.
Running `dirmngr` bare gave me useful error output:
$ dirmngr
dirmngr[16342]: /home/hans/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf:1: invalid option
