GitHub is requiring me to set up 2-factor authorization by October 11,
or they will lock me out of my account.  I've followed their setup
instructions using Aegis for Android, but I always get the message,
"Two-factor code verification failed.  Please try again."  I cannot
complete the setup.

There doesn't seem to be a help link anywhere, and this problem doesn't
show up in any FAQ, so I tried Googling, Binging, and DuckDuckGoing the
problem.  The only suggestion I've seen is that the clocks of the phone
and computer are out of sync.  It turned out mine were off by 2 seconds,
but re-synchronizing them did not help.  I've rebooted both the phone
and the computer.  No luck.

The deadline is approaching, and I'm faced with a problem that is not
acknowledged to exist by either GitHub or the authenticator.  Have any
GitHub users here set up 2FA successfully?  Did you have this problem?

My OS is openSUSE Leap 15.3.
