Description

Keybase GUI Version: 3.0.0-20190205183613+6394d03e6c

The application does not seem to pick up system proxy settings.

I get an error: Device provisioning failed because this device went offline. Please check your network connection and try again.

Research direction

Reproduce the device provisioning failure on a MacOS Mojave machine configured with system proxy settings, and first verify whether the application detects those settings. Done means the GUI uses the configured proxy and device provisioning no longer reports that the device went offline.
