    Introduction

    -

    For GNU/Linux, we recommend following the installation method detailed below based on what distribution you are running.

    -

    To find out which distribution you are running, open a terminal and type in the following:

    -
    cat /etc/issue
    -

    Ubuntu

    -

    There are two ways to install bitmask on Ubuntu, via packages and via bundles. If you are comfortable with the command line, we recommend using packages when available, otherwise use the bundle. If installed as a package, Bitmask will run faster, be better integrated in the desktop environment, and will be faster to start.

    -

    For Ubuntu, we only provide packages for Wily Werewolf (15.10) and Vivid Vervet (15.04).

    -

    If you are using Trusty, then you will need to use the bundle method.

    -

    We are sorry, Precise Penguin (12.04) is not working at this time.

    -

    Bundle

    -

    First determine if you running a 32 bit or 64 bit kernel by running the following command:

    There are two ways to install bitmask on Debian, via packages and via bundles. If you are comfortable with the command line, we recommend using packages when available, otherwise use the bundle. If installed as a package, Bitmask will run faster, be better integrated in the system, and will be kept up to date.

    For Debian, we only provide packages for Stable (Jessie/8), Testing (Stretch) and Unstable (Sid).

    Please note that we only provide support for the above versions of Debian and Ubuntu. You are welcome to try and get Bitmask running on another distribution. If you want to try, we recommend attempting to use the bundle (see below), or have a look at building it from source.

    + +

    Stand Alone Bundle

    + +

    The Bitmask stand alone bundle should work on most recent versions of Debian and Ubuntu. You are welcome to try the bundle on other distributions, it sometimes works. Alternately, you can build it from source.

    +

    First determine if you running a 32 bit or 64 bit kernel by running the following command:

    -
    uname -m
    -

    If the result is:

    - -

    Then download the appropriate version below:

    -

    + +

    uname -m
    +
    + +
    + If the result is x86_64, you have 64 bit + + Download 64 bit -

    -

    Signature file

    -

    + +

    + Signature file +
    + If the result is: i686 or i386, you have 32 bit + + Download 32 bit -

    -

    Signature file

    -

    If you want to make sure that the Bitmask wasn’t messed with during download you can authenticate the signature.

    -

    Upgrading

    -

    From stand-alone bundles: Bitmask should upgrade itself automatically (for versions equal or later than 0.7.0). If you are running a version prior to 0.7.0, you can download the new bundle and copy the “config” folder from the old bundle directory.

    + +
    + Signature file +
    + + +

    Optionally, you can authenticate the signature using LEAP’s archive signing key.

    + +

    If you want to try an experimental or release candidate versions of Bitmask, you can browse the full list of available downloads.

    + +

    Upgrading

    + +

    From stand-alone bundles: Bitmask should upgrade itself automatically (for versions equal or later than 0.7.0). If you are running a version prior to 0.7.0, you can download the new bundle and copy the “config” folder from the old bundle directory.

    +

    From packages: If you are running from packages, then you can trigger an update like so:

    +
    apt-get update
    -apt-get dist-upgrade
    -

    NOTE: When upgrading Ubuntu from 14.10 (Utopic) to 15.04 (Vivid), you may need to run this command again:

    -
    sudo add-apt-repository "deb deb.bitmask.net/debian vivid main"
    -

    Similar is needed for the upgrade from 15.04 to 15.10 (Wily):

    -
    sudo add-apt-repository "deb deb.bitmask.net/debian wily main"
    -

    This is because the Ubuntu upgrade process probably commented out all your prior custom repository lines in /etc/apt/sources.list.

    NOTE: When upgrading the version of your operating system, you must also follow the directions listed under “When upgrading the OS” above.
