Research direction

Start by reproducing the login failure in Keybase GUI version 1.0.18 and capture the provisioning logs around “GPG error: exit status 2.” Trace the login provisioning path to determine which GPG operation fails; done means login completes without the provisioning error and the failure case is covered by a regression test.
