Subject: [bug#68645] [PATCH] gnu: browserpass-native: Add configuration note
Date: Sun, 21 Jan 2024 20:39:18 +0100

There is a small note in the patch where the author says that the user should
run following command to configure browserpass. However this is not reflected
anywhere else and without it, the application is unusable.
