Change the server we use then?

> If an LDAP key entry uses V3 fingerprint, the key fetch process does not work.
> This is because the server that is used - keys.gnupg.net - does not support v3 fingerprints.
> As a temporary work-round, I have added a command-line option to load keys by id; this means finding the id which corresponds to the v3 fingerprint.
> It is not possible to derive the id directly from a v3 fingerprint, so this requires a manual search, followed by manually adding the id.
> It would be useful if V3 fingerprints were directly supported.
> For example, maybe there is a GPG server that supports search by V3 fingerprint?
> Alternatively, perhaps the manual search could be automated?
