Description

% keybase version
Client:  3.2.1
Service: 3.2.1
% keybase login
Your keybase username or email address: lapo@lapo.it
▶ ERROR Logging in with e-mail address is not supported (code 243)

I'd remove the second option in the first line… or actually support it instead of the second line. :)

Research direction

Start with the keybase login command and reproduce the prompt using the e-mail address shown in the report. Trace the login entry point that offers “username or email address” and the path producing error code 243. Done means the prompt and behavior agree: either e-mail login works or the unsupported e-mail option is removed.
