You mean creating the 6 digit codes? Isn’t that the point?

The opposite!

I want to decode the Roshack splotch (OTP) when it is
presented to me, so I can enter the number into the
multifactor authentication challenge.

You are misunderstanding how this works.  That QR code contains a secret value that lets the OTP application generate the 6 digit codes as needed.  There is no actual code in the QR code.

To clarify further, you only need the QR code *once*.  After that, you use the application to give you the code you need when asked for.


This what I am after.  A program presents a QC splotch.  A
user scans it with their Android phone and reads it into
FreeOTP.  FreeOTP coughs out a six digit code, which
I enter.

I want to do this without the Android.

buy an iPhone ...

exact this what you want is the other way of it sense;

2FA = 2 Factor Authentication

example you login on a site, there you have the knowledge of

user and password

and then the 2nd factor, which is a OTP

when you really do this with your fedora, then there is NO 2nd factor,
because when your fedora gets compromised, the 2FA gets compromised, too
