Bug Description
As observed with a failure with the HKP server:
quote/
~$ gpg --send-keys --keyserver keyserver.
gpg: sending key AAAAAAAA to hkp server keyserver.
not sure what can be done, but the docs/feedback is kinda wonky:
https:/
If successful, GPG will display a message similar to: gpg: sending key 12345678 to hkp server keyserver.
but that is the message you get when there is a problem too
"If successful, GPG wont display an error message." (best i got)
/unquote
covering for every exception may be a Bad Idea, but perhaps some guidance for errors may be useful or not??
