How To Install python3-pyeclib on Kali Linux
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-pyeclib on Kali Linux.
What is python3-pyeclib
python3-pyeclib is:
This library provides a simple Python interface for implementing erasure codes. To obtain the best possible performance, the underlying erasure code algorithms are written in C.
This library makes use of Jerasure for Reed-Solomon and provides its own flat XOR-based erasure code encoder and decoder. Currently, it implements a specific class of HD Combination Codes (see “Flat XOR-based erasure codes in storage systems: Constructions, efficient recovery, and tradeoffs” in IEEE MSST 2010). These codes are well-suited to archival use-cases, have a simple construction and require a minimum number of participating disks during single-disk reconstruction (think XOR-based LRC code).
There are three methods to install python3-pyeclib on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
Install python3-pyeclib Using apt-get
Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.
sudo apt-get updateAfter updating apt database, We can install python3-pyeclib using apt-get by running the following command:
sudo apt-get -y install python3-pyeclibInstall python3-pyeclib Using apt
Update apt database with apt using the following command.
sudo apt updateAfter updating apt database, We can install python3-pyeclib using apt by running the following command:
sudo apt -y install python3-pyeclibInstall python3-pyeclib Using aptitude
If you want to follow this method, you might need to install aptitude on Kali Linux first since aptitude is usually not installed by default on Kali Linux. Update apt database with aptitude using the following command.
sudo aptitude updateAfter updating apt database, We can install python3-pyeclib using aptitude by running the following command:
sudo aptitude -y install python3-pyeclibHow To Uninstall python3-pyeclib on Kali Linux
To uninstall only the python3-pyeclib package we can use the following command:
sudo apt-get remove python3-pyeclibUninstall python3-pyeclib And Its Dependencies
To uninstall python3-pyeclib and its dependencies that are no longer needed by Kali Linux, we can use the command below:
sudo apt-get -y autoremove python3-pyeclibRemove python3-pyeclib Configurations and Data
To remove python3-pyeclib configuration and data from Kali Linux we can use the following command:
sudo apt-get -y purge python3-pyeclibRemove python3-pyeclib configuration, data, and all of its dependencies
We can use the following command to remove python3-pyeclib configurations, data and all of its dependencies, we can use the following command:
sudo apt-get -y autoremove --purge python3-pyeclibDependencies
python3-pyeclib have the following dependencies:
