I'm following this to install Tor on a Debian based machine.

However, I'm unable to add Tor's gpg key to the system's apt repository:

root@fenrir:~# gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available
root@fenrir:~# gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available
root@fenrir:~# gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 886DDD89
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available
root@fenrir:~# gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available
root@fenrir:~# gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available
root@fenrir:~# gpg --keyserver sks-keyservers.net --recv A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
gpg: keyserver receive failed: Connection refused

I'm unsure if the GPG keys of Tor are no longer available or if the key servers are down.

  • That looks like some kind of connectivity issue on your side.

Works here, either the servers were down (unlikely) or you can't access them because they are blocked (e.g. Firewall)

You can import the key manually like this:

gpg --import PATH_TO_KEY
gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -

You can get the key here
