Gajim with Tails - Anyway to save login & settings with persistence

Hello all,

Wanting to use Gajim (with OMEMO) with Tails but is there anyway to save configuration (ie. login info & settings) with persistence?

Thanks in advance! :)

You should find the files storing those, and set it to a path in your persistence.

Consult https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/wikis/help/Help .

I know there's a way of enabling OMEMO fingerprint persistence and chat persistence using dotfiles, but idk about login credentials tho

Here are the instructions to enable persistence on Gajim

Make sure you have set a admin password

Install Gajim

Sudo apt install gajim-omemo

(or through synaptic package manager)

Open a terminal and type this

gnome-text-editor admin:///live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/persistence.conf

[Enter your admin password]

Add the following lines to the conf file

/home/amnesia/.cache/gajim[TAB]source=gajim

/home/amnesia/.config/gajim[TAB]source=gajim

/home/amnesia/.local/share/gajim[TAB]source=gajim

Save conf file

Restart Tails

Now you will have persistence in Gajim for logins and settings

Log in or sign up for a XMPP account

Note*

Kdewallet may ask you to encrypt your gajim login you can just skip it

Hope this helps

Hey - thank you! I have a few questions though!

Firstly - do I set it up as install once or reinstall app each reboot?
