Vaults is an application developed by MatrixEternal that allows users to create encrypted archives for storing sensitive files. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Vaults on MXLinux Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation, you should have the following:
The first step is to install the required dependencies for Vaults. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake libfuse-dev libcrypto++-dev libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libz-dev libsqlite3-dev pkg-config
This will update the package list and install the necessary dependencies.
Next, we need to clone the Vaults repository from GitHub. To do this, navigate to the desired directory where you want to store the code and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/MatrixEternal/vaults.git
This will download the latest version of the vaults code to your machine.
Once the repository is downloaded successfully, navigate inside the vaults directory using the terminal:
cd vaults
Now, we can start building and installing Vaults by running the following commands:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
make
sudo make install
The first command will create a build directory for us to compile the code with specific optimizations, while the last two will actually compile and install the code to the desired directory.
Finally, to verify if Vaults is installed properly, run the following command:
vaults --version
You should see the version of Vaults that you have installed.
