I verified this to be the case in Wireshark. It's sending both A and queries for hostname vod.ohai.su (not sure how it got that from pool.sks-keyservers.net but whatever probably not relevant.) However it's only GPG that seems to do this. If I ping either of those hostnames it sends only an

Looks to be the case. The strange thing is I thought that as well and tested by passing "ipv6.disable=1" to my distribution kernel and it still worked. Then I compiled IPV6 support into my custom kernel and that got it working BUT when I pass "ipv6.disable=1" to my custom kernel it does NOT work.

I'm using Arch Linux and running a custom kernel (version 4.0.2) and I'm unable to use the --refresh-keys function. I know the kernel is the problem because when I reboot into the ARCH distribution kernel (also version 4.0.2) it works fine. It's only my custom kernel that has this issue. I need
