Install reliably fails on Ubuntu 22 VM

[hyperknot]

Hi, I'm trying to run the install command on a minimal Ubuntu 22 VM in orbstack.

I've read this thread:
#639

My problem is that the installation reliably (100%) fails with this error:

gpg: directory '/root/.gnupg' created
gpg: keybox '/root/.gnupg/pubring.kbx' created
gpg: /root/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created
gpg: keybox '/usr/share/keyrings/k6-archive-keyring.gpg' created
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No route to host

I had to install dirmngr, without it didn't even got this far. I've seen that it might be related to dirmngr trying to use Tor protocol?

Now if I understand dirmngr is a daemon which has to run in the background? Just to receive a single key? (What a crazy decision by Ubuntu, I mean seriously? Now, to deprecate apt-key, we need a daemon running in the background which cannot connect because it uses Tor??)

I recommend the project to follow what nginx does.

curl https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key | gpg --dearmor \
    | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null

This way you save yourself this whole mess by Ubuntu.

OK, I found the key. So this command is beautiful, fast and reliable:

curl https://dl.k6.io/key.gpg | gpg --dearmor \
    | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/k6-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null
