no. i called 'eix totp' to see whar gentoo packaged with the name totp (akin to apt search totp). the ebuild for app-crypt/totp-cli-bin recommended app-admin/keepassxc for a better option, but the gui version failed to run with a qt version conflict i've yet to diagnose, so i just used totp-cli.. RL> Devuan Bronchitis has keepassxc but not totp anything. on ceres i see keepassxc-full, keepassxc-minimal and transitional packages named keepassxc. i have not investigated the differences. RL> (The laptop with Devuan RL> Dermatitis isn't set up at the moment.) Is that the same as RL> https://github.com/WhyNotHugo/totp-cli (which says it's a pip install...) the ebuild i used specifies https://github.com/yitsushi/totp-cli as the homepage. one is likely a fork of the other. with totp-cli-bin it was a matter of running: totp-cli-bin add totp-cli-bin g github my_gh_id and follow the prompts. the 1st arg to g is the namespaced i specified when add prompted for it, and IIRC the second was also a string for which add prompted. the token string gh specified was also entered at one of add's prompts. >> keepassxc/stable RL> It says it's a password manager, is that the same as totp-cli? all i know for sure is that to totp-cli-bin ebuild writes this after installing: "For a more mature TOTP you can try app-admin/keepassxc, cli included" RL> P.S.
