Description

Following the Hacker News article I tried installing the Fedora RPM from the website but I'm still prompted for an invite code.

Tagging @oconnor663 per request.

➜  ~ keybase --version
keybase version 1.0.18-20170208170104+dc66461

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Fedora RPM installation described in the issue and verify the reported keybase version with keybase --version. Trace why the installed client still requests an invite code; done means the Fedora installation follows the expected post-installation flow without that prompt.
