Why would it look for it under /keybase ? It does live under ~/.config/keybase .

Perhaps the environment you're running in has $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS unset. Can you give more info about what you're doing?

Urm, not really doing anything fancy - installed Keybase on a Debian (7.2), and starting gnome and then a terminal. the Keybase (cap K) binary is kicked off but loops with the above message in the logs. It does the same if I try to run it interactively.

Your idea re $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS being unset makes good sense - had it been set to "$HOME/.config" it would probably have worked. However I'm not sure (a) why that happens and (b) where I could fix that - setting the var in .bashrc etc. does not seem to have an effect on the instances of /opt/keybase/Keybase.

Ah, okay. We don't support Debian 7, it's very old (2013). I think you'd have to figure it out yourself.
