Title:
  Keys cannot be refreshed via "gpg2 --refresh-keys"

Status in GnuPG2:
  Incomplete
Status in gnupg2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  gpg2 --refresh-keys yields the following:

  gpg: keyserver refresh failed: No keyserver available

  However, I have everything set up in dirmngr.conf:

  keyserver hkp://jirk5u4osbsr34t5.onion
  keyserver hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
  hkp-cacert /home/colan/.gnupg/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem

  ...and dirmngr can find it:

  colan at snake[Tue 13 14:30]% dirmngr                                                   
  dirmngr[26401.0]: permanently loaded certificates: 0
  dirmngr[26401.0]:     runtime cached certificates: 0
  # Home: ~/.gnupg
  # Config: /home/colan/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf
  OK Dirmngr 2.1.11 at your service
  keyserver
  S KEYSERVER hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
  OK

  Looks like gpg2 isn't grabbing the correct information from the
  response as here's what's happening with debugging turned on:

  colan at snake[Tue 13 14:30]% gpg2 --refresh-keys --debug-all                           
  [...]
  gpg: DBG: connection to the dirmngr established
  gpg: DBG: chan_6 -> GETINFO version
  gpg: DBG: chan_6 <- D 2.1.11
  gpg: DBG: chan_6 <- OK
  gpg: DBG: chan_6 -> KEYSERVER
  gpg: DBG: chan_6 <- OK
  gpg: keyserver refresh failed: No keyserver available
  gpg: DBG: chan_6 -> BYE
