[Bug 1634464] Re: cloudimg apt missing dirmngr

APT recommends gnupg, and gnupg recommends dirmngr, so all is working as
intended. If you want to use optional (deprecated) features of apt-key
like adv, you have to manually install gnupg. If you want to use
optional features depending on key servers, you have to install dirmngr
manually.

The adv option is deprecated, like almost everything else. Drop files in
trusted.gpg.d instead. The recommends on gnupg will be downgraded to a
suggests at a later point.
