[Whonix-devel] Troubleshooting: Header Conversion to argon2id

[procmem]

Hi, I went ahead and tested the commands recommended by Milan for
converting headers to use the better pbkdf algo. Unfortunately I'm
running into an obscure error and wanted your advice on how to solve it.

Please see the output of the command with --debug
