Unable to add gpg key with apt-key behind a proxy












27















Adding a gpg key via apt-key systematically fails since I've switched to Ubuntu 17.04 (I doubt it's directly related though). Example with Spotify's repo key:



$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys BBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886
Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.wRE6z9GBF8/gpg.1.sh --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys BBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available


Same thing if I remove the hkp:// prefix.





Context: I use CNTLM to cope with the local corporate proxy. Env variables are set (in /etc/environment):



$ env | grep 3128
https_proxy=http://localhost:3128
http_proxy=http://localhost:3128
ftp_proxy=http://localhost:3128


/etc/apt/apt.conf is configured (apt commands are working fine):



$ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://localhost:3128";
Acquire::https::Proxy "http://localhost:3128";
Acquire::ftp::Proxy "http://localhost:3128";


Finally, the specified keyserver seems reachable:



$ curl keyserver.ubuntu.com:80
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>SKS OpenPGP Public Key Server</title>
</head>
<body>
[...]


What can I do ? I'm not even sure on how to further debug it...





Things I already tried to do, without any result:




  • run sudo with -E (preserve env) option

  • run apt-key adv with --keyserver-options http-proxy=http://localhost:3128/ option (source)

  • run $ gpg --list-keys for some reason (source)

  • use another keyserver (--keyserver pgp.mit.edu)

  • remove the hkp:// part (--keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com:80)


Weird thing is that I never see any "cntlm" entry in /var/log/syslog when running apt-key.

You usually have a proxy for ftp, http and https; I am seeing there hkp:// as an URL; so it should not be directed via a pure http proxy, hence failing the communication.



Use this instead:



sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --keyserver-options http-proxy=http://localhost:3128 --recv-keys BBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886


As for the system updates, I would advise using an APT proxy, for instance, apt-cacher-ng.



Another way of doing it, is searching in the public web interface, with a browser, for instance on your working station for the key you want at https://keyserver.ubuntu.com



Open the site, and you got a form. In this case I used the "Search String" "Spotify"; then select "Search" ; it will list several keys.



Searching for the signature/fingerprint that you mentioned in the result page:



pub  4096R/D2C19886 2015-05-28            
Fingerprint=BBEB DCB3 18AD 50EC 6865 0906 13B0 0F1F D2C1 9886

uid Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <operations@spotify.com>
sig sig3 D2C19886 2015-05-29 __________ 2017-11-22 [selfsig]
sig sig 94558F59 2015-06-02 __________ __________ Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <operations@spotify.com>


We see this is the entry that interests us.



So we click in D2C19886 and are presented with a page with the key at https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x13B00F1FD2C19886.

You cut between the line that begins with "-----BEGIN" and the line ending with "-----END", including those lines, and paste to a file, say spotify.pgp on the intended server you want to import that key. (do not cut it from here, as I added 4 spaces before each line while formatting)



Finally to import the key into the server you do:



$sudo apt-key add spotify.pgp
OK

    Hello Rui, indeed this "manual" method works and that's how I "temporarily" solved it in the meantime. Apparently this temporary solution is not gonna stay temporary :( But thanks a lot anyway.

you can specify the keyserver as a parameter to add-apt-repository by:



sudo add-apt-repository --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com:443 some_ppa


Outgoing port 443 would not be blocked by the corporate firewall.

Here is a solution that uses http via curl instead of trying to proxy apt-key or gpg:



curl -sSL 
'http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xBBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886'
| sudo apt-key add -

    Use this instead:



    sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --keyserver-options http-proxy=http://localhost:3128 --recv-keys BBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886

    Searching for the signature/fingerprint that you mentioned in the result page:



    pub  4096R/D2C19886 2015-05-28

    You cut between the line that begins with "-----BEGIN" and the line ending with "-----END", including those lines, and paste to a file, say spotify.pgp on the intended server you want to import that key. (do not cut it from here, as I added 4 spaces before each line while formatting)



    Finally to import the key into the server you do:



    $sudo apt-key add spotify.pgp
    OK

    You usually have a proxy for ftp, http and https; I am seeing there hkp:// as an URL; so it should not be directed via a pure http proxy, hence failing the communication.



    Use this instead:



    sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --keyserver-options http-proxy=http://localhost:3128 --recv-keys BBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886


    As for the system updates, I would advise using an APT proxy, for instance, apt-cacher-ng.



    Another way of doing it, is searching in the public web interface, with a browser, for instance on your working station for the key you want at https://keyserver.ubuntu.com



    Open the site, and you got a form. In this case I used the "Search String" "Spotify"; then select "Search" ; it will list several keys.



    Searching for the signature/fingerprint that you mentioned in the result page:



    pub  4096R/D2C19886 2015-05-28            
    Fingerprint=BBEB DCB3 18AD 50EC 6865 0906 13B0 0F1F D2C1 9886

    uid Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <operations@spotify.com>

    sig sig 94558F59 2015-06-02 __________ __________ Spotify Public Repository Signing Key <operations@spotify.com>


    We see this is the entry that interests us.



    So we click in D2C19886 and are presented with a page with the key at https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x13B00F1FD2C19886.

    you can specify the keyserver as a parameter to add-apt-repository by:



    sudo add-apt-repository --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com:443 some_ppa


    Outgoing port 443 would not be blocked by the corporate firewall.

    Here is a solution that uses http via curl instead of trying to proxy apt-key or gpg:



    curl -sSL 
    'http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xBBEBDCB318AD50EC6865090613B00F1FD2C19886'
    | sudo apt-key add -
