I only use Revelation very rarely, and what a shock to find it was completely gone from my Ubuntu 20.04 system, even though I've been using it since... forever.

I followed these instructions to get revelation installed again: https://blog.diogoferreira.pt/how-to-install-revelation-on-ubuntu-20-04/

But now .... where are my passwords?  It starts up blank.  Is there a file somewhere in my home directory I can open or import to recover the passwords?

Hello,

My "Revelation file" is kept in my Home folder. I also backup the file often, copying it to an external drive.

Whenever I install some new Linux version to my computer, I restore the file from backup to my new Home folder. Then setup Revelation to "Open file on startup" in Preferences under Edit.

Do you have a copy of your Revelation database backed up some place? It's a single encrypted file containing your account and password information, saved by default to Home. Remember what you named it?
