Client: Unable to show Files in File Explorer option on Linux

[kaerumy]

Ubuntu Linux 19.04. This feature used to work fine, now clicking on it opens a dialog "Enable Keybase in File Explorer" but clicking on Yes Enable button does nothing. As in, it doesn't seem to be accepting any input.

kbfs use mount works fine though, and I can navigate and browse the mountpoint via Nautilus and CLI.

That option is not supposed to show up for Linux, where the explorer integration is always enabled.

cc: @jzila @songgao I see this on the nightly build too, seems like a regression.

[jzila]

Definitely a regression. We'll take a look, thanks.

Same problem here. Clicking "Yes, Enable" does nothing.
Ubuntu 18.04.2
EDIT: I am unable to see any explorer integration with Nautilus or Caja.

I get this dialog too, but sometimes I also get the message:

Error: /keybase is unavailable. Please try again. at mo.a.readdir (file:///usr/share/keybase-app/desktop/dist/main.bundle.js:1:2982507) at FSReqWrap.oncomplete (fs.js:141:20)

So clicking the button seems to be doing "something". Unsure if it is related or just coincidental. But I do not have the setuid redirector running.

Same problem here. Clicking "Yes, Enable" does nothing.
Ubuntu 18.010
It worked flawlessly until a few weeks ago when I restarted the computer.

Thanks folks; we'll have a fix soon and let you all know when we have a testable version.

Hey folks, we have the fix merged: https://github.com/keybase/client/pull/17236

It should be included in the next release but if you feel adventurous the nightly build should already have it.
