sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv ....KEY....

So the new apt key stuff is a bit arcane. Try this instead to download and install a key from a keyserver. This is extremely quick and dirty, expect it to break under non-ideal situations and leave artifacts that make noise. Bare minimal checking.

TODO: Do some magic, set the names from the repo URL or something. Check to make sure we got something, etc
