This bug was fixed in the package software-properties - 0.96.24.25
---------------
software-properties (0.96.24.25) bionic; urgency=medium
* ppa.py:
- rework key retrieval, instead of using hkp & gnupg/dirmngr, use https
& python's built in urllib.
- thus, add-apt-key for PPAs observes https_proxy for key retrieval
- simplify gnupg operations, depend on gpg package only, and use
import/public key operations only.
- fix unicode process output bugs, when operating in a non-UTF-8
locale, thus enabling to import keys for my ppas in C locale.
- avoid creating trustdb, or requiring any gpg-agent systemd socket to
be activated
- update tests to execute key addition fully with less things stubbed
out with mock
- stop using apt-key for installing keys
- dirmngr is a heavy dependency and not used, and it is hard to pass
proxy information to it when invoking gpg from a non-standard homedir
- deprecate --keyserver option, making HTTPS access to
keyserver.ubuntu.com required
