Description:

When installing Keybase using Homebrew on macOS, I encountered a segmentation fault (SIGSEGV) during the installation process, specifically while installing command-line tools. This appears to be caused by a nil pointer dereference in the Go code.


Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Run brew install keybase on macOS.
  2. Observe the panic during the installation process.

Expected behavior:

The installation should complete without errors.


Actual behavior:

The installation fails with a segmentation fault.


Environment:

  • macOS Version: Darwin Darwin Kernel Version 24.0.0 arm64
  • Homebrew Version: Homebrew 4.4.2
  • Keybase Version: 6.5.0

Error Logs:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x2 addr=0x28 pc=0x1016a4484]

Additional Context:

The installation process seems to fail while checking /usr/local/bin/keybase. It appears related to the Go code at this point:
