Description Kalin KOZHUHAROV 2018-03-05 11:42:06 UTC

Created attachment 522444 [details, diff]
git diff f08120 keybase-1.0.44.ebuild

I have been fighting with keybase/KBFS for some time...

Now 1.0.44 works again for me, please see my pkalin overlay: https://github.com/thinrope/pkalin

We need to suid /usr/bin/keybase-mount-helper and create some fake dir/symlink in /var/lib/keybase

It is all in flux, and looks like upstream is moving to suid root (instead of keybasehelper), so luckily we'll get rid of that 'system user' soon.
