Well, identities are not something to be used by the 'system-user', they are a concept for the 'end-user'. Why would you expect this to work in the first place? |
|
|
I run gnunet as a system use, but interact with identity as a normal user. |

The identity service is supposed to be launched once *per* user using it. That's why we have the notion of a USER_SERVICE (yes/no). Basically, in a multi-user system, each user will have the private keys of their egos in their $HOME under their gnunet-service-identity. gnunet-search works as "gnunet" because it doesn't care about per-user services. (FS is not marked as USER_SERVICE; indeed it ultimately should be, but that'll require a design change which is still not implemented). So to summarize, this reads like expected behavior.
