Thanks ... it does not really help (I attach it). The message is: command 'KS_PUT' failed: Server indicated a failure <Unspecified source> I ran it with debugging on the Debian 11 machine where it works. I put the PIv4 address for keys.openpgp.org into /etc/hosts - the Debian 10 machine has IPv6 that works, the Debian 11 machine is IPv4 only.
