I use it to run the 1Password app on Ubuntu.

I was considering of using it also. How good is it ? Are there any differences, restrictions ? Currently I use the 1password web version.

It's a bit of a slog:

(1) You have to get Wine working, which can be kind of a hassle - there are a million different guides and ways to configure Wine especially wnen you factor in 32-bit versus 64-bit, winetricks, staging versus devel, etc.

It's hard to sort through all the potential ways and figure out the simplest thing to do, which is basically:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds

$ sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel

$ wine ~/Downloads/1Password-4.6.1.617.exe

<Now launch 1Password via the .desktop launcher that should have been created for you>

(2) The password helper won't automatically start, so you have to choose "Restart 1Password Helper" from the Help menu after you start the main application.

Then assuming you want to use the browser extensions,

(3) You have to disable browser signature verification under Help->Advanced (while you're at it you might as well "tune for performance").

(4) The browser extension shortcut keys won't work, so you have to click the extension button instead of simply hitting Ctrl-\.

hmm interesting. I never had to do any of Wine configuration on Ubuntu or Fedora.

1. sudo apt-get install wine 2. wine ~/Downloads/1passwod-blah.exec

On first launch wine configures itself and default configuration IMO works fine for running 1Password.

Last piece of puzzle is, making sure Password agent starts automatically when you login to dekstop so I have little .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart - https://gist.github.com/gnufied/c0615a8a90d21a8d575590b5001f...

How? It's a UWP app which Wine does not support.
Re:Wine 2.0 released by rrdharan on Tuesday January 24, 2017 @05:16PM (#13476224)
I actually never saw the UWP app, it's been temporarily yanked:

I've been using 1Password 4, which works fine: https://app-updates.agilebits.com/download/OPW4

Unfortunately I can't seem to make the 1Password 6 beta (which may or may not be the UWP app? Unclear to me) work with Wine 2.0.

Re:Wine 2.0 released by LeoPanthera on Tuesday January 24, 2017 @05:17PM (#13476233)
Ah. Unfortunately I have a subscription plan and 1Password 4 won't connect to it.
Re:Wine 2.0 released by rrdharan on Tuesday January 24, 2017 @05:38PM (#13476439)
I see. Yeah only 1Password 6 works with the teams/subscription stuff and unfortunately they don't have any plans to support 1Password 6 on Linux (whether through Wine or other means):

Yeah I use 1password as well. I wish there was a linux client.
Re:Wine 2.0 released by hookshot on Tuesday January 24, 2017 @10:42PM (#13478277)
I just started using enpass today. They have a native Linux app, it works almost identically to 1password, and you can import your 1password vault.

GNU has a password manager, though I've never tried it.

The old, still-supported version 4.x works great.
