To proceed with this tutorial, you will require the following:
Before we install any new software, it's a good idea to update our system packages to ensure that everything is up to date.
Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T and run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Before we install SimpleLogin, we need to install some dependencies. We need the curl, gnupg, and lsb-release packages. Execute the following command:
sudo apt install curl gnupg lsb-release
Now we can begin with the installation of SimpleLogin. Add the SimpleLogin GPG key to your system by executing:
curl -L https://simplelogin.io/release-signing-key.asc | sudo apt-key add -
Add the SimpleLogin repository to your package sources:
echo "deb https://apt.simplelogin.io/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/simplelogin.list
Update package sources:
sudo apt update
Once the update is complete, execute the following command to begin the SimpleLogin installation process:
sudo apt install simplelogin
The SimpleLogin installation process should have started the service itself. If not, run the following command:
sudo systemctl start simplelogin
To identify whether the service is running correctly or not, execute the following command:
sudo systemctl status simplelogin
The SimpleLogin service should have a status of "active (running)."
