How to install Riot desktop (Matrix client) on Debian-based systems

Tested on Debian Mint edition, but this should work for Ubuntu too.

These instructions assume you are willing and able to use the command line— that is, open a terminal and type these lines of commands. Unlike the the official desktop install information, these instructions don't assume you already know and remember how to add a new remote source to your package manager and install from it.

Encryption on Ubuntu: Just the commands

For set-up, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FolderEncryption

Open:
encfs ~/.ncryptd ~/ncryptd

where ncryptd is the name of your directory. Note the dot (.) in front of ncryptd in the first parameter of the encfs command; the encrypted version is an entirely different directory and could have a completely fidderent name from the directory you decrypt it into.
