On Ubuntu you need to compile ToxCore, Libsodium, and filter_audio by hand. Someone already wrote on how to achieve this, simply follow the guide to Install ToxCore.
After ToxCore is installed, run the following line to fetch & install the dependencies needed by Ricin to compile/run.
# Required to build Ricin:
$ apt-get install python3 valac
# Required by Ricin at runtime:
$ apt-get install gtk+3 libglib2.0-0 libglib2.0-dev \
libjson-glib-1.0-0 libjson-glib-dev libnotify-dev \
libsoup-gnome2.4-dev
Note: You may have to
sudo
both lines in order to have them running properly.
To install all the Ricin's dependencies, simply write the following in a shell.
$ pacman -S python3 vala gtk3 toxcore \
glib2 json-glib libsoup libnotify
On Fedora you need to compile ToxCore, Libsodium, and filter_audio by hand. Someone already wrote on how to achieve this, simply follow the guide to Install ToxCore.
$ dnf install python3 valac glib2 gtk3 gtk3-devel \
json-glib libsoup libnotify
