SiriKali 1.5.0 ecryptfs issues

Open elias137 opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

SiriKali 1.5.0 running on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS compiled with Qt 5.13.3 has issues with ecryptfs mounts. I neither cannot create ecryptfs volume, nor mount an existing one. SiriKali hangs on creating ecryptfs volume and then quits with no error reporting. Also I cannot mount a previously manually created ecryptfs volume as there's no option for ecryptfs to select in volumes type, ecryptfs is just absent (ecryptfs-simple is installed). I've also tried to use SiriKali installed via Ubuntu snap, with no luck also. EncFS works just great and has no issues.

I have the same issues. The menu option for setting encrypted remains greyed out after installing encrypts in the /use/bin path, seems the code to set it is missing. I personally don’t care about the encryption. I wanted to use this gui to load my own module for the fuse file system instead of using encryption ( basically a custom fuse file system. Is there a fix for the program for its intended purpose available. First step for me is to get it working with encryption as it is originally intended then I can fork it and do what I wanted, this should save me weeks or months of work. Help is appreciated. I am on Ubuntu 23.04. Thanks. Note I have installed from source every version in the repo. Everyone of them have the backend system greyed out. Even if it was updated for simplicity hardcoded for encryptfs that would be helpful. I can spend a bunch of time reverse engineering it, but at that point I might as well rewite the whole thing!

@elias137, open the terminal then type the following commands and post their output here: which ecryptfs-simple ecryptfs-simple --version

@wanfuse123 , If your project is public then post it here so that i can test to see if it works with SiriKali or not

Here it is:

ecryptfs-simple --version ecryptfs-simple 2016.11.16.1
