Description

Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.47-20180410052738+f705a9510f

The problem with the way keybase uses /Volumes in MacOSX (at elast 10.13.3) is that it does put there the same type of links/mounts as is expected by other applications, (Like TRiBackup) which then throws errors.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Keybase GUI behavior on macOS, focusing on the links or mounts it places under /Volumes. Compare the result with the behavior expected by TriBackup and document a test or verification step showing that TriBackup no longer reports errors when the issue is resolved.
