What should happen?

I would expect browserpass to also check the default password store location of gopass (~/.local/share/gopass/stores/root) by default.

What happened instead?

browserpass doesn't work out of the box with gopass' default store location. PASSWORD_STORE_DIR has to be set.

Makes sense, especially given that we explicitly say that browserpass works with pass and gopass 🙂

Would you like to take a stab at it?

This is the function to change:

browserpass-native/request/configure.go

Line 145 in 4d8abe1

func getDefaultPasswordStorePath() (string, error) {

This is the gopass logic:

https://github.com/gopasspw/gopass/blob/d00c29a0e8e521eb32e4564998690430dcc7dbbc/pkg/appdir/appdir_xdg.go#L39-L50

I suppose the check should be done in this priority order (return earliest match):

1. $PASSWORD_STORE_DIR
2. $GOPASS_HOMEDIR
3. $HOME/.password-store
4. $XDG_DATA_HOME/gopass/stores/root
5. $HOME/.local/share/gopass/stores/root

If at some point the discussion linked in #95 settles, this priority list would be extended even further.
