Description
Copied to Applications folder then ran it. Problems immediately.
First problem - "KBFS is not available" with a long error message.
Second problem - when setting a public name for my device, got a string error and then everything froze and I can't continue from the public name for this device screen. Can't go back either. Restarting just brings me back to the same screen and can't go anywhere.
Can't use the GUI yet. Is it really this broken?

Research direction
Start with the provided log ID 72af1908bc36709a832a4f1c and reproduce the launch flow on OS X, including the KBFS error and the public-name screen. Trace the GUI entry points for those two failures; done means the application launches past setup without freezing and both reported errors are resolved.
