#Qtox user list install#
I just found out that you can now install "qTox" using an easy to install Linux ".deb" file, as well as my previous instructions.Ĭlick at bottom "Grab binary packages directly", or use the direct links below. I had both installed before, but I liked "qTox" better. But, as I stated before, I do not think it is being maintained any more, whereas "qTox (Qtox)" is actively being maintained and updated.
#Qtox user list software#
"uTox" used to be in the Software Manager or Synaptic Package Manager (SPM) for easy installation. It has been awhile, did you succeed in getting "uTox", or "qTox", installed and running? Re: Do you think MS will ever nix Skype for Linux?
#Qtox user list password#
*** Note: Do not forget your password from this website, because there is no password recovery, use "KeePassX" or "KeePass2" to store passwords and important information*** This "registration" processes is supposedly going to be integrated (available) into newer versions of "qTox". Then you and others can locate one another through this website and add each other to your Tox Clients. This is safer than emailing your Tox ID to friends and family. ToxMe website - register your Tox ID from any "Tox" client software here, and have other Tox users do the same. Register your Tox ID in link below (if you want to I highly recommend that you do) - In your Tox Client application, click your login name to see your Tox ID, copy that ID#. To install "Qtox" using the console terminal, type in, or copy & paste, each line below one by one:Įcho "deb nightly release" | sudo tee /etc/apt//tox.list
#Qtox user list free#
"qTox", the free and secure "Skype" replacement. These are very good secure alternatives to "Skype". I do not think that "uTox" is being maintained any more, but, "qTox" is being actively maintained and developed. OK that was toxcore, now for qTox, which we're using cmake for cd. (It's a good idea to use checkinstall instead of make install to create a deb package from the compiled files - then dpkg will know about your qtox and will help you to manage it) echo '/usr/local/lib/' | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/nf configure exits successfully, you can run makeĪnd if make exits successfully, you can run sudo make install In this case I think the list of dependencies is complete, so hopefully you will manage. You can also try apt search, but then you have to do some guesswork.
I hate to say "search for the answer", but I'm saying it: try searching in your favourite search engine for the error message, and most likely you will find the answer on Stack Overflow. If you are sure you have installed all the dependencies mentioned, and it complains about a missing library, try.
Now if the configure script complains, check that you followed all of the above steps correctly. Tidy, no? :) Continue with: git checkout v0.1.2 Notice we are in /home/$USER/qTox/toxcore. OK we need to clone the toxcore repo: git clone toxcore We also need to compile toxcore, and for that, apparently we need: sudo apt install \
Make a new directory for the sources mkdir $HOME/qToxĬlone qTox (yes, I know we now have /home/$USER/qTox/qTox, there's a reason for this, honest!) git clone qToxīefore we try to do anything with that, we need to install the dependencies for it: sudo apt install \ Install git if not already done - we need that to get started sudo apt install git YMMV, but the instructions are for 16.04 and later. The procedure below is what I did to successfully compile and install qTox on Ubuntu MATE 17.04. I followed the installation instructions on GitHub. If you insist on using qTox, you can have a go at compiling it. You can install uTox trivially using the instructions linked in your question: echo "deb stable $(lsb_release -cs)" | sudo tee /etc/apt//tox.list
