Description

Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.47-20180508010858+c06519b740

This is an intermittent issue. Some machines on darwin work fine with this version others remain in the "loading" phase right after install.

This happens on 2/4 machines I tried it on. I did try some other versions with the same results.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the intermittent post-install loading state on darwin with GUI version 1.0.47, comparing machines that work with those that remain stuck. Done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming that installation reaches the GUI beyond the "Loading..." phase across the affected machines.
