Testing with
2.4.4 and 2.2.34
gpg --locate-external-keys bernhard@intevation.de
got me my pubkey in all cases. So you are correct, it works
for those version.

For Debian GNU/Linux oldstable, it still is 2.2.27, though
and 2.2.19 for Ubuntu GNU/Linux 20.04LTS.

--locate-external-keys was introduced with 2.2.17.
