Hey @darkrain

Can you confirm me that you are using [email protected]?

Hey @darkrain

Can you confirm me that you are using [email protected]?

Yep

So, the problem is that [email protected] uses the newest async API:

https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-crypto/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#features

In this context, when you do generateKeyPair, the resulting keys will have the sign function, which uses the new API. This way, js-ipns tries to sign using the oldest libp2p-crypto API, that is, using a callback. If you check the package.json in this repo, you can see that we have [email protected], which still works on a callback way.

TLDR: we are on a process of refactoring all our codebase to use an async API and get rid of callbacks.
Apparently, all the blocking dependencies to get this module refactored are already merged and released, so we will move with ipfs/js-ipns#19, which will fix this issue for you

@darkrain just released the new version of [email protected].

Will close the issue now, but let me know if this did not solve your problem
