I was in Tunisia at the airport in Tunis for a departing flight. Having already checked online, I tried going through security with my electronic boarding pass. The security told me I needed my boarding pass. I pointed again to the electronic copy as politely as I could. The security said “this is Tunisia, you need the paper copy.” XD

Is smoking still allowed there indoors (in the airport)?

Not sure, I didn't notice. A lot of airports have a designated smoking room, but I think you're asking about smoking in general.

It's probably banned then since. A few years ago people were lighting up cigarettes in the lobby, which was very odd to me.

This happened to me in Mumbai several years ago. I had thankfully been forewarned, but there were military police checking boarding passes for entering passengers outside the airport, and no one without a paper boarding pass + appropriate government ID was allowed into the terminal. This was right up there with the "requirement" that business travelers in India provide a physical business card to the hotel when checking in. I haven't been a in few years, so hopefully that's at least no longer the case.

What year? I cannot believe this was in the last 20 years. The "physical business card" thing never happened to me.
