I noticed that this problem can be fixed for me if the GPG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS variable on line 171 of ppa.py is changed. If I add these two properties to the list, then the problem goes away completely:
"--keyserver-options", "http-proxy=" + os.environ['http_proxy'] Obviously, you would want to check for the existence of this variable before you just went using it, but it looks like this is the problem. The PPA library does not forward the HTTP proxy settings along to GPG, so GPG tries and fails to make a direct connection to the keyserver. Am I missing something about the way this works, or can we make a similar change and resolve these proxy issues? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1089389 Title: juju bootstrap fail behind a proxy when a gpg key must be imported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/1089389/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
