Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions About Keepassxc, VeraCrypt, ZuluCrypt and Some Others

2019-07-22 Thread dave

Hello,

I'm currently running the in-development Trisquel 9.0 and can confirm that  
KeepassXC is there...


keepassxc/etiona 2.3.1+dfsg.1-1 amd64
  Cross Platform Password Manager

An option to get it on an a Trisquel 8.0 system is to install it using Guix  
(an alternative GNU packaging system that several people here on the forum  
have installed on Trisquel). Guix currently has keepassxc 2.3.4 available.


If you search for 'Guix' on the forum here there is some discussion about  
what it is, and how to set it up.

Welcome!

Trisquel 8 is based on Ubuntu 16.04.  Of the three programs you list, only  
ZuluCrypt is in the repository of Ubuntu 16.04 and it is as well in the  
repository of Trisquel 8: the package is named "zulucrypt-gui" (assuming you  
want the graphical front end).  KeepPassXC is not in the repository of Ubuntu  
16.04, but it is in the repository of Ubuntu 18.04.  I am not aware of any  
freedom issue with it.  That is why I believe it will be in Trisquel 9's  
repository.  On the contrary, not all VeraCrypt is free software:

Asking the real questions. I want to know as well!

I've been torrenting for years and am nowhere near those stats.


[Trisquel-users] Questions About Keepassxc, VeraCrypt, ZuluCrypt and Some Others

2019-07-22 Thread sk6354

Hi,

This is the first time that I signed on to this forum. It's good to be here!

I have been into computers since the 1980s beginning with the Commodore 64,  
and later, the IBM XT with Windows 1.0 and OS/2. Then, in the early 1990s, I  
got involved with a Linux group at a local college. Though I knew much less  
than my fellow members at the Linux SIG (Special Interest Group), I started  
an off-campus extension of that SIG with those members to spend more time  
learning about what I later learned was actually GNu/Linux. Although, I  
mostly used MS Windows because it had the programs I could easily use to  
publish newsletters, etc, I began to buy books like Yggdrasil, Running Linux  
by Matt Welsh, and a number of others to learn more. Over the years, I tried  
dozens of GNu/Linux distros via CD like Redhat. At my local SIG, the project  
leader in the early 1990s introduced me to Debian, which he began to help out  
with. Later on, I began to use various Ubuntus, a derivative of Debian, which  
I also used.


Being interested in security, privacy, and freedom, which most people really  
do not seem to be interested in, no matter what they might say, I became  
interested in "free" software, and I found that of all the "free" software  
that I could find listed on Distrowatch years ago, I preferred Trisquel.  
Since I do not like Gnome3, I won't use PureOS, a derivative of Trisquel.


At the moment, I'm using a derivative of Devuan, an offshoot of Debian,  
because it does not employ "systemd," but because Star, that derivative that  
I use, uses the blob-infested Linux kernel, and not the "free" version, and  
it is the easiest for me to use, I decided to go back to Trisquel.


Right off the bat, I have several questions. With Star, I have been using  
Keepassxc, a more up to date version of Keepassx, and I noticed that your  
repository does not carry it. Do you plan to, or is there something wrong  
with it in some way? Also, I use VeraCrypt and sometimes, ZuluCrypt, and I  
noticed that you do not carry either one in your repository. Are they both  
actually non-free?


I am not a coder of programs though I did give early Basic a try, and I have  
created several websites using HTML and CSS along with JS plugins for many  
years. I would appreciate it if you could answer my few questions.


Keep up the great work!

Now that you've drawn my attention to it, I'm confused by that link,
because it appears differently on the forum[1] from how it does on the
list.[2]

[Trisquel-users] Re : Trisquel 7 and Trisquel 8 Question

2019-07-22 Thread lcerf
After the modification of /etc/apt/sources.list that you made, the (graphical  
or textual) update to Trisquel 8 described on  
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/keeping-system-updated still does not work?


If so, I would simply try to substitute "belenos" with "flidas" in  
/etc/apt/sources.list:

$ sudo sed -i 's/belenos/flidas/' /etc/apt/sources.list
Then update:
$ sudo apt update
And finally upgrade:
$ sudo apt upgrade

For your piece of mind (mainly), it is worth doing a backup of all user data  
before all that.

i'll start testing torrent clients on Trisquel 8 somewhere next weekend and  
see how Transmission performs compared to Qbittorrent. On Debian 9.4 and  
Ubuntu 18.04 Qbittorrent is working excellent, whereas Transmission has had  
several issues, including the "suddenly not running" problem.
Clients i will be testing on Trisquel 8 are: Qbittorrent 4.*, Transmission,  
Deluge 1.3.*, uTorrent-linux server-alpha_3.3 and Aria2 (Aria2 in Nextcloud).


Screenshot attached shows Qbittorrent stats after 14 months of operation on  
Ubuntu :)


Will start posting test-results when available.

Hi,

Thanks for the information. It is good to know that I should definitely  
upgrade to Trisquel 8.

I will design a plan to upgrade to Trisquel 8.

In Software updater I got the following message:

Failed to download repository information
Check your internet connection.
Settings..., Try Again, OK.

I checked my internet connection. Visiting internet webpage is possible and  
Wifi shows that it has a good connection.


(With "Try Again" I got the same above message.)

I also tried to updating software via terminal:

sudo apt update

I got the following message:

E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found.
N: Is the package apt-transport-https installed?

Then I tried from source  
(https://askubuntu.com/questions/165676/how-do-i-fix-a-e-the-method-driver-usr-lib-apt-methods-http-could-not-be-foun#211531):


sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https

then I got the following message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package apt-transport-https

From Information from source  
https://www.tecmint.com/fix-unable-to-locate-package-error-in-debian-9/ I  
tried to do this:


sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

Then I got:

# deb cdrom:[Trisquel 7.0 _belenos_ - Release amd64 (20141102)]/ belenos main

# Trisquel repositories for supported software and updates
deb http://nl.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/ belenos main

# deb http://fr.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/ belenos-backports main
# deb-src http://fr.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/ belenos-backports main

I see belenos. But I should have flidas I think.

Can anybody help what the next action is?
What should I understand to solve this problem?
