Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:

Step 1: Install required packages

First, we need to install some required packages for Pachno to work on Kali Linux. Open the terminal and run the following command:

sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc git gnupg2 pinentry-curses

git clone https://github.com/davidhuser/pachno.git

This command will clone the Pachno repository to your current directory.

  1. Generate a new GPG key using the following command:

    gpg --gen-key
    

    Follow the prompts to set up your GPG key.

  2. Export your GPG key to a file using the following command:

    Replace <filename> with the name of the file you want to export your GPG key to.

  3. Import your GPG key into Pachno using the following command:

    pachno import <filename>
    

    Replace <filename> with the name of the file you exported your GPG key to.
