I'm using gnupg-1.9.21
and I tried it both with "0x" and without. 

gpg --interactive --recv-keys ED0E1FB7 
worked but it gives me an old unmodified version.

I tried to submit 
gpg --send-keys 0xED0E1FB7
gpg --send-keys ED0E1FB7

both went though fine (I think) no complains.
Except I think it doesn't work. 
I have removed/updated most keyid's and change expiration to unlimited.
but it pulls back expired version.
