* Package name : signalbackup-tools Version : 20241105.2 Upstream Author : Selwin van Dijk <basjetim...@yahoo.com> * URL : https://github.com/bepaald/signalbackup-tools * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: C++ Package source : https://salsa.debian.org/debian/signalbackup-tools Description : Tool to work with Signal Backup files Tool to work with backup files generated by the Signal Android application (https://signal.org/). It can dump the decrypted backup components to a directory, or read the contents of a directory and pack and encrypt it back into a valid backup file. When dumping, make sure the directory to dump to is empty to start with. In theory, the decrypted files could be edited before re-encrypting. It has also been used successfully to fix backups that were corrupted. . Signal is an actively developed application and consequently, the database format changes regularly. Often the changes do not affect the backup file format or the working of this program, but every once in a while a change does break (some of) the functionality of this program. It has happened before and it will happen again. Sometimes I fix it within hours, but when I am short on time, it may take a little longer. Any breakage will be dealt with as soon as I have some spare time. . The tool is provided as-is, there may be bugs. The tool and I are not affiliated with or endorsed by the Signal Foundation.
