| jubo2 | Ok. I filed a bug about the Plasma-vault refusing to create a vault because the CryFS and the EncFS are newer than what Plasma-vault is expecting https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-vault/+bug/1809902 | 14:14 |
|---|---|---|
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1809902 in plasma-vault (Ubuntu) "Plasma-vault 5.12.7-0ubuntu0.1 will not create a vault because the CryFS and EncFS are newer than it expects" [Undecided,New] | 14:14 |
| acheronuk | jubo2: thanks | 14:35 |
| jubo2 | np | 14:35 |
| acheronuk | updating a vm to test on that | 14:36 |
| jubo2 | cool. thanks acheronuk | 14:37 |
| acheronuk | jubo2: what is you output for 'apt-cache policy encfs' and 'apt-cache policy cryfs' | 14:43 |
| jubo2 | just a sec | 14:43 |
| acheronuk | just made a vault fine with cryfs | 14:44 |
| acheronuk | and with encfs | 14:46 |
| acheronuk | I'm wondering if you really have those installed? | 14:46 |
| jubo2 | yeah I got them | 14:47 |
| jubo2 | privmsg or pastebin for the output? | 14:47 |
| jubo2 | acheronuk: above line for you | 14:47 |
| acheronuk | pastebin | 14:47 |
| jubo2 | hold on.. | 14:47 |
| jubo2 | it says "Installed: (none)" | 14:48 |
| acheronuk | well, you dont have it installed then | 14:48 |
| jubo2 | oh crap.. sorry for wasting urr time acheronuk | 14:48 |
| jubo2 | I'll install now and see what happens | 14:48 |
| acheronuk | jubo2: you haven't wasted it, as it made me find the bug | 14:49 |
| jubo2 | This is embarracing | 14:49 |
| acheronuk | and a fix | 14:49 |
| jubo2 | I don't know how I managed to not notice that they ain't installed | 14:49 |
| acheronuk | NOT the bug you thought, but still a bug | 14:49 |
| jubo2 | acheronuk: so CryFS is preferred over EncFS? | 14:49 |
| acheronuk | just about | 14:50 |
| jubo2 | I saw a notice about EncFS getting a bad security audit | 14:50 |
| jubo2 | but I read somewhere that no independent security audit has been done for CryFS | 14:50 |
| acheronuk | I think basically a user who cares that much, should buy a hardware encrypted drive ;) | 14:51 |
| acheronuk | for most people, it's ok | 14:51 |
| acheronuk | jubo2: for the record, you have shown that this fix needs to be applied: https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-vault.git/commit/?h=Plasma/5.12&id=5d3face3c1bbe5a8a40927048b6f1c3280b26399 | 14:52 |
| acheronuk | so it give a **correct** error message, saying that it can't find the encryption backend installed | 14:53 |
| jubo2 | acheronuk: Just to be on the safe side I ask you this: I can set the mount point to where the currently unencrypted directory is. Right? No loss of data? | 14:53 |
| acheronuk | instead of the version error | 14:53 |
| acheronuk | jubo2: I can't say. I've done basic testing of it, but not that | 14:54 |
| acheronuk | back up the dir if not sure | 14:54 |
| jubo2 | it is huge | 14:54 |
| jubo2 | holds backups | 14:54 |
| acheronuk | probably the best person to ask in the KDE developer then | 14:55 |
| acheronuk | he is the author of this commit: https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-vault.git/commit/?h=Plasma/5.12&id=45ad41edad0df1d118317cba9497c02fb1b3870d | 14:56 |
| jubo2 | it seems it silently failed trying to set a mount point over an existing directory | 14:59 |
| jubo2 | so put it in ~/Vaults/something and now moving the stuff there | 14:59 |
| jubo2 | gotta dash. if you need something acheronuk (re: the bug report or something) just drop me a line and I'll do it when I get back home. bye | 15:00 |
| acheronuk | jubo2: kool. if we can amend the bug title and description, can use it to track applying the fix for the misleading error message | 15:01 |
| acheronuk | which I can test and upload sometime soon | 15:01 |
| jubo2 | 'k will do | 15:02 |

| Katnip | think this will work on kubuntu? https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/11/connect-android-ubuntu-gsconnect | 16:48 |
| jubo2 | acheronuk: You there. Something slightly nightmareish happened. I was moving several tens of GB to the newly created vault with 'mv' command and the system run out of disk and the 'mv' ended with a bunch of "Transport endpoint is not connected" errors | 17:47 |
| jubo2 | now when I try to open the vault I get error "Failed to open: Failed to create directories, check your permissio..." | 17:48 |
| jubo2 | According to this https://github.com/cryfs/cryfs/issues/209 if an encrypted block is corrupted _and_ it happens to be that of a directory it will render all the content gone | 17:56 |
| jubo2 | and since I was moving a whole directory I think I've lost the data | 17:56 |
| jubo2 | maybe I should reboot and see if I can open the vault | 17:57 |
| jubo2 | I have a 500GB backup disk and that contains all the directories that were probably lost now | 17:59 |
| jubo2 | or at least I think I'm seeing all the "lost" directories in there. I gonna reboot and see if the Vault is permanently broken | 18:00 |
| jubo2 | Ok. A relief. The Vault opens | 18:06 |
| jubo2 | but running df hangs | 18:07 |
| jubo2 | something is definitely wrong now | 18:08 |
| jubo2 | df hangs and does not care about CTRL+c | 18:08 |
| jubo2 | now the df runs | 18:34 |
| jubo2 | it seems the vault is 204GB in side of which only 145GB is used | 18:35 |
| jubo2 | *size | 18:35 |
| daddyjohn | there we go, Ill take some of that, and add a dash of coffee... | 19:27 |

| valorie | Katnip: if you are running Kubuntu, kdeconnect is what you want | 21:45 |
| valorie | if instead you are using a gtk environment like Ubuntu, then use gsconnect | 21:45 |
| valorie | as the article says, it's a javascript port of kdeconnect | 21:46 |
| Katnip | ok | 21:57 |
| Katnip | ty | 21:57 |
