Debian isn't responsible for the sks pool, and a quick glance at https://sks-keyservers.net/status/ suggests that not nearly enough SKS servers in the pool support TLS to support the outcome you're aiming for. I sympathize with your goals -- i also want more hkps support available, and would be happy to talk more about how we get there (or perhaps how we replace the SKS keyserver pool with something different entirely). But the debian BTS is not the right place to move that forward. A better place for this conversation would be: SKS development list <sks-de...@nongnu.org> https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/sks-devel Regards, --dkg
