Description Nate Graham 2021-05-23 20:17:18 UTC

Upstream repo: https://github.com/cryfs/cryfs

This repo provides CryFS, which is one of three supported cryptographic file backends for the Plasma Desktop's Vaults feature.

I just migrated from openSUSE Tumbleweed and set up a CryFS-based vault over there, but was rather dismayed to discover that it is inaccessible in Fedora due to the lack of CryFS being available in the repos. I had to build it from source to make my data accessible again. This is not really something I would recommend for a typical user. :)

Package Review tickets are for people contributing packages to Fedora: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Review_Process

If you'd like to contribute a cryfs package, you certainly can. :)

I did manage to get it built locally. I have never submitted a package to any distro before, and I don't have any experience with RPM spec files, but if you or someone else is willing to hold my hand, I might be able to do it. :)

I'd be happy to help you through that sometime this week. :)

If opensuse already has working spec file, it can be reused for Fedora package. Usually with small modifications. Try opensuse spec file:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/security:privacy/cryfs

Are you willing to maintain it on Fedora?

That spec file is a good reference, but it looks like basically the entire spec would be different to comply with Fedora's standards.

Any progress on this?

Comment 7 Petr Menšík 2021-10-04 18:47:11 UTC

No-one proposed Fedora spec to review. If you would like a new package but don't want to maintain it, please try persuading someone on fedora-users list or similar place. Bugs to this components are for the actual reviews.

Triaging this bug to 'kde-settings' at least until a real package is available for formal review

Comment 10 Onuralp SEZER 2022-01-22 20:25:21 UTC

Package approved.I think we can safely close this bug report ?

Comment 11 Neal Gompa 2022-01-22 21:00:27 UTC

Once you have the package imported and built for Fedora and EPEL, yes.

Comment 12 Nate Graham 2022-03-16 13:55:03 UTC

Works perfectly for me. I think we can call this fixed!

Comment 13 Neal Gompa 2022-03-16 14:39:56 UTC

Yup, this is resolved now!
