Description

Hey guys !

I'm trying to get keybase CLI working on windows using Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. Unfortunately, I'm getting an error when I try and contact the API server.

ERROR dial unix /home/username/.config/keybase/keybased.sock: setsockopt: invalid argument

Do you think this is a Windows-related error ?
