How To Install ocaml-cryptokit on Fedora 36
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install ocaml-cryptokit on Fedora 36.
What is ocaml-cryptokit
The Cryptokit library for Objective Caml provides a variety of cryptographic primitives that can be used to implement cryptographic protocols in security-sensitive applications. The primitives provided include * Symmetric-key cryptography ARCfour, in ECB, CBC, CFB OFB and counter modes. * Public-key cryptography key agreement. * Hash functions and MACs based on AES and DES. (SHA-1 and MD5, despite being broken, are also provided for historical value.) * Random number generation. * Encodings and compression Additional ciphers and hashes can easily be used in conjunction with the library. In particular, basic mechanisms such as chaining modes, output buffering, and padding are provided by generic classes that can easily be composed with user-provided ciphers. More generally, the library promotes a “Lego”-like style of constructing and composing transformations over character streams.
We can use yum or dnf to install ocaml-cryptokit on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install ocaml-cryptokit.
Install ocaml-cryptokit on Fedora 36 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install ocaml-cryptokit using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install ocaml-cryptokit
Install ocaml-cryptokit on Fedora 36 Using yum
Update yum database with yum using the following command.
sudo yum makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install ocaml-cryptokit using yum by running the following command:
sudo yum -y install ocaml-cryptokit
How To Uninstall ocaml-cryptokit on Fedora 36
To uninstall only the ocaml-cryptokit package we can use the following command:
sudo dnf remove ocaml-cryptokit
