Bug Description

[Impact]

Users are unable to import any public keys, making caff unusable.

[Test Case]

Replace 12345678 with someone's keyid.
With caff from signing-party 2.4-1:

$ caff 12345678
...
[WARN] gpg exited with value 2
[WARN] No public keys found with list-key 12345678 (note that caff uses its own keyring in /home/user/.caff/gnupghome)
[NOTICE] No keys to sign found

With caff from signing-party 2.4-1ubuntu1:

$ caff 12345678
...
[NOTICE] Fetching keys from a keyserver (this may take a while)...
[INFO] Key 12345678 imported

[Regression Potential]

Minimal, the patch reverts a single line to the previous working version.
