GPG bug, can't get public key


I set up GPG on ubuntu using the tutorial from deepdotweb.com:

https://www.deepdotweb.com/2015/02/1...ide-pgp-linux/

However, when I run the command "sudo gpa" in the terminal the window opens but I get the following error message: "The GPGME library returned an unexpected error at keytable.c:150. The error was: unknown option."

Any way around this?

I wonder why the linked instructions suggest using sudo to run gpa?
