Description

After upgrading to 0.19.0 (from the main F-Droid repo) there's a dialog where it is unclear what the user is supposed to do:

![Screenshot_20200510-085413](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/502780/81499824-39c53380-929c-11ea-85d6-60b22dad8f73.png)

The "Key Backup recovery key" looks like a link but does not work. The word "key" being used twice makes it really unclear what's being asked for. Entering anything appears to be 'not a valid recovery key' without any hint as to what a valid entry would be.

The only action appear to press 'back' then try to Skip the process completely to be able to make any progress by avoiding the 'upgrade'.
