[patch] support hkp urls with path components
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Release: 1.4.0

Description

I use this patch to support my cgi hkp server - hkp://cgi.sfu.ca:80/~jdbates/

It's simple & totally copied from gpgkeys_http

gnupg supports hkp urls with path components - but gpgkeys_hkp would just ignore the path component - "gpg --keyserver hkp://cgi.sfu.ca:80/~jdbates/ --search-keys jack" would request "/pks/lookup?op=index&options=mr&search=jack" - instead of "/~jdbates/pks/lookup?op=index&options=mr&search=jack"

David, IIRC you recently added this, right?

I'm okay with this idea, but unfortunately, the only keyserver I know
of that has a path component is hkp://cgi.sfu.ca:80/~jdbates/ and it
is currently down. Is it yours? Can you get it running again so I
can test against it?
