Debian 8 is what I use. You must have snipped off that part of my post.
I am not sure, but I think you are using a very old version of GNU PG
that does not have support for HTTPS (HKPS is a protocol over HTTPS).
The default version in Debian 9 (2.1.18) supports HKPS.
But well, you can use plain HKP too:
gpg --keyserver 'hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net' --fingerprint 'FINGERPRINT'
Hmm...
$ sudo gpg --keyserver 'hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net' --fingerprint

[sudo] password for dan:
gpg: /root/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created
gpg: error reading key: public key not found
where have I seen that before? :-)
Since borg is a self-contained binary, perhaps it does not need to be
formally declared as a package in Debian 8. The problem is "how can one
verify the download before moving it into /user/local/bin" as
recommended by the author?

Verifying the download is the problem.
