(x) ubuntu 7.10 – Setting up KeePassX 0.22

Hi folks,

I just managed to install KeyPassX on XUbuntu 7.10 and maybe this short guide helps you.

Please note that I take no responsibility for anything even though these steps worked perfectly for me.

Here we go:

1. download packages:

~$ wget http://keepassx.sourceforge.net/download/qt4_4.1.3-2_i386.deb
~$ wget http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/keepassx/KeePassX-0.2.2.deb

2. install the packages

~$ sudo dpkg -i KeePassX-0.2.2.deb
~$ sudo dpkg -i qt4_4.1.3-2_i386.deb

3. to prevent an errormessage about a missing libpng.so.3 install libpng3

~$ sudo aptitude install libpng3

As KeePassX is now available via the package management system enter:

~$ sudo apt-get install keepassx

and KeePassX is installed via apt-get.

Next step. run KeePass

~$ keepass

Et voilà:

I advise you to make backups regulary and to pick a strong master-password.

Good luck
