hi, of course everybody has an encrypted rootfs of some sort..
but this is still a good question in terms of work flow. i would use a file containing a luks encrypted file system, and mount it on demand. if you're importing these images into your regular darktable database however, the thumbnails will still show up unencrypted in ~/.cache/darktable/, which may defeat the purpose. you can of course put a separate library and cache dir into the container, too, and use --library and --cachedir or even --configdir to make sure dt runs only on these images and the thumbnails stay inside the box. if you're only worried about a handful of pictures, this procedure may be overkill.. and certainly a per-file encryption (gnupg?) together with a flag inside the brain of dt to treat the thumbnails confidentially may be more convenient: you can continue to use your regular db and until you go for decryption, dt would only show skull icons/similar for the respective files. cheers, jo On Wed, Aug 31, 2016 at 9:45 AM, Jason Polak <jpo...@jpolak.org> wrote: > I use Encfs.
