Description

Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.16-20160715110019+f0caa34

I can't log in or signup, not with the app not via terminal. After bushing the 'Continue' button in the app, I only see a spinner.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the login or signup flow in the Keybase GUI and via the terminal using the reported version, focusing on the Continue action and its spinner. Trace the relevant authentication entry point to determine why both paths fail; done means login and signup complete successfully in the affected clients.
