Ubuntu (23.10) installation fails from the website: here is a quick fix
While using
`curl --remote-name https://prerelease.keybase.io/keybase_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./keybase_amd64.deb
run_keybase`
As provided on the website, I got a bunch of dependencies errors. Specifically, it all starts with libgconf-2-4 which appears not to be included in Ubuntu repos (at least here). If you have this problem, you can use the following gist which is basically a wrap up of the dependencies i found broken on Ubuntu 23.10 plus the official installer.
Related dependencies included:
- gconf2-common_3.2.6-5_all.deb (deb package, version sensitive)
- libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-5_amd64.deb (deb package, version sensitive)
- libdbusmenu-gtk4 (repo package)
- libappindicator1 (repo package)
Convenience gist to download and execute (or copypaste):

Of course you are highly encouraged to read and execute commands one by one.
