The paper key you entered had an invalid version.

Hi, I think I've found a bug while trying to recover my account. I've been trying various words for a paper key, and got most of the errors listed https://github.com/keybase/kbfs/blob/master/vendor/github.com/keybase/client/go/libkb/passphrase_helper.go along the way,

This means all my words are now valid, go version reports version 1.8.3, and fuse 2.9.7.1. The message I cannot get past is:

"It looks like there was a typo. The paper key you entered had an invalid version. Please try again."

I see that this is produced conditional on if version != PaperKeyVersion. Any help appreciated.

It's a mistake on your part, but @patrickxb can clarify further.

Hi Max and thanks for getting back to me so fast. I'll be patient and wait because there's a 6 hour time difference!
