apt-key with HKP keyserver

I’m trying to follow the instructions for installing MaraDB apt package (https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/#distro=Ubuntu&distro_release=precise&version=5.5). It proposes to add a key like this:

sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 0xcbcb082a1bb943db

So I tried this in the playbook:

apt_key: keyserver="hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80" id=0xcbcb082a1bb943db state=present

And got the error "urlopen error unknown url type: hkp". Have I used the right syntax?

Yes, you did it right…

But I’d try changing hkp (http keyserver protocol) to http…

I’ve had similar issues with hkp before.

http doesn’t work stderr: gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found."

Maybe I should report it as a bug?

Did you ever resolve this Michael? Just hit the same OpenPGP error with MariaDB…

I’m getting the same errors with an hkp server when trying to install rmv’s gpg key.
