Comment (by traumschule):

 Thanks for this perspective. Ideally i'd like to get our expert guides
 sudo free because it is setup specific and except the compilation part
 there's near to nothing that does not require admin privileges. To avoid
 creation of /root/.gnupg the --no-option is promoted, but it did not pass
 my test. In the end I am in favor of curling the key from tpo.

 >       --no-options
 >              Shortcut for --options /dev/null. This option is detected
 before an attempt to open an option file.  Using this option will also
 prevent  the  creation  of  a ‘~/.gnupg’ homedir.

 At first this seemed to work:
 {{{
 # gpg2 --no-options --auto-key-locate keyserver --export
 A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89|apt-key add -
 OK
 }}}
 But when I removed /root/.gnupg:
 {{{
 # gpg2 --no-options --auto-key-locate keyserver --export
 A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
 gpg: keyblock resource '/root/.gnupg/pubring.kbx': No such file or
 directory
 gpg: WARNING: nothing exported
 }}}

 #5996 comes to mind
