In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps on how to install Robust IRC on your POP! OS Latest operating system.
Before you begin, please make sure that you have the following:
The first step is to add the Robust IRC repository to your POP! OS system. To do this, open up your terminal emulator and type in the following command:
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://dl.bintray.com/robustirc/robustirc \`lsb_release -sc\` main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/robustirc.list'
This will add the Robust IRC repository to your system's sources list.
After adding the repository, we can now proceed to install Robust IRC and its dependencies. Type in the following command in your terminal emulator:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install robustirc
This will update your system and install Robust IRC and its dependencies.
Once the installation is complete, Robust IRC is ready for use. However, before connecting to any servers, we need to configure it.
To configure Robust IRC, open up the Robust IRC configuration file using your terminal emulator by typing:
sudo nano /etc/robustirc/config.yml
Here, you can configure various settings such as your username, password, the servers you wish to connect to, and more.
Finally, to start Robust IRC, type in the following command in your terminal emulator:
systemctl start robustirc
This will start the Robust IRC service, and you can now connect to any servers you have configured.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Robust IRC on your POP! OS Latest operating system. We hope this guide was helpful, and you can now enjoy using Robust IRC to connect to your favorite servers.
