Did you try saving the public key to a text file and import it from there. It's been a while since I used gpg, but I found the documentation on how to do it.

I tried to import the key using gpg directly from a text file , and
getting the same error message.
$ gpg --import example.asc
gpg: key 0AE464DB: no valid user IDs
gpg: this may be caused by a missing self-signature
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: w/o user IDs: 1
As GPG says it "may be caused by of missing self signature". Maybe
per didn't signed the key perself.
It works with gpg2.
$ gpg2 --import d.pub
