Error! '<' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'tuple' on openSUSE Tumbleweed

[unguul]

Hello,

I'm having issues getting my YubiKey 5 NFC to work on openSUSE.

I'm getting the error message in the title when clicking Applications -> OTP.

• openSUSE Tumbleweed (20181105);
• YubiKey Manager 1.0.1;
• YubiKey 5 NFC with 5.1.1 firmware;

dmesg seems to be happy. [ 4463.340801] hid-generic 0003:1050:0407.0010: hiddev98,hidraw5: USB HID v1.10 Device [Yubico YubiKey OTP+FIDO+CCID] on usb-0000:02:00.0-4/input1

Works just fine on Ubuntu 16.04.

From an initial google search it seems to just be a syntax error but I might be wrong.

Thank you!

Thanks for the report! Could you try running YubiKey Manager as ykman-gui --log-level DEBUG and post the output here?

[unguul]

Output of ykman-gui --log-level DEBUG as root:

qt.qpa.screen: QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display 
Could not connect to any X display.
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I guess I'm just missing some required plugin as per Available platform plugins are: wayland-org.kde.kwin.qpa, eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb. ?

It looks like you're running it in a different environment than when you got the previous error - it doesn't even start up now, right? You shouldn't need to run it as root.

[unguul]

That's a good point about the environment. Running as root, both with and without the --log-level DEBUG flag fails as per my previous message and the GUI doesn't show up at all.

However, running as non-root, plugging the yubikey in and clicking Applications -> OTP shows up with the error in the title and the following the terminal:

Thanks for helping out btw! 😄

Ah, it looks like libykpers is missing on your system. Do you have that library installed?

[unguul]

Aha! Installing libykpers makes that error go away. Thank you!. I also just saw #73 .

Might be worth adding libykpers as a dependency to this package so it automatically gets installed with yubikey-manager-qt ? I'd offer a pull request but I have absolutely no clue on how to define dependencies. (Happy to learn though)

Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to fix the issues I'm having getting the key to simply work with as a security key for an online account. I've tried Google, Github and Facebook until now. All say something cryptic like "Something went wrong..".

Any suggestions on that? Maybe a recommended way to (re)install packages required for the Yubikey to work with my system?

Thanks again!

[emlun]

Glad that helped!

We don't maintain packages for OpenSUSE, so you'd have to bring that to the OpenSUSE packagers. The Debian package that we do maintain for yubikey-manager (the library this GUI depends on) has libykpers as a dependency.

As for your issues with using your YubiKey as a security key on the web, Yubico Support should be able to help you with that. I'd suggest that the first thing to do is make sure that the YubiKey has the FIDO U2F and FIDO2 interfaces enabled. Or perhaps you may need another client library like libu2f-host or libfido2. Anyway, Support should be able to help you with that.

openSUSE package maintainer here. I have somehow missed this dependency and am going to fix this. Thanks for looking into it!
