I know p7zip package is not installed by default on Ubuntu 18.04. Still Nautilus is able to create 7z archives. How is this possible?
Just getting started with Linux/Ubuntu. I installed 7z but the command is not found. I restarted the computer to hopefully refresh commands but that didn't help either.
Here is what I did:
sudo apt-get install p7zip
sudo apt-get install p7zip-full
Then tried
7z e [file-name].xz
and
7za e [file-name].xz
then I read up the man file but still nothing. Every time i get the following reply:
/usr/local/bin/7z: 2: /usr/local/bin/7z: /usr/local/lib/p7zip/7z: not found
I had a question. Im trying to backup and encrypt files, but using the more recent aes256 or aes512 encryption.
1) I heard 7z defaults to aes128, I want to use the best one (aes256... i think?), how do i do it?
Here is my command:
cd /mnt/MyBackupHardDrive ;
7z a MyFullComputerBackup-AES256.7z -t7z -m0=lzma2:d1024m -mx=9 -aoa -mfb=64 -md=32m -ms=on /home/MyHomeDirectory
2) Does this automatically encrypt the filenames too?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
How can I uncompress a *.7z file in Ubuntu and keep the directory structure?
I downloaded a series of packages that all compress one thing. The files end in .0, .1, .2, etc.
The User Lists of these packages I downloaded say to use the file.bat to successfully extract, or to use 7zip. I do not understand how to do that with 7zip.
