So, this is the guide: https://gist.github.com/Irastris/31766414a981a056d49c1242a019829a

It talks about FunKiiU (which works fine on Linux) and cdecrypt (which is Windows-only).

Are there alternatives to cdecrypt which run on Linux?

Remember to be careful with AUR. There's already been malicious code introduced via AUR after someone picked up orphaned PDF viewer as maintainer.

That was in 2018...

The AUR has the same risks as adding a ppa to a debian tree install, or downloading an rpm from a website.

If it's not in the official repository of your repo treat with caution

Yep, but it can happen again. There may already be something undiscovered.

The same is true for all package management systems that work the way that the AUR does.
