I have a reasonably stable version of the code available here:
https://github.com/andrewgdotcom/tails-clone-persistent/releases/tag/v0.1.1-beta1
The easiest way to install it is to download the .deb, but it should(?)
build cleanly from the source. There's nothing particularly fancy in it.
Some notes/caveats:
1. The GUI half of the code is still perl, sorry. So it's not directly
pluggable into tails-installer (yet!). It works fine as a standalone
GTK2 app and invokes tails-installer as required. Working code >> proper
standards and all that. ;-)
2. The GUI is not particularly pretty.
3. My C++ string handling sucks. Please don't look at it. I'll tidy it
up later.
4. If you type in the wrong password when updating an existing
persistent partition, it will fail hard rather than reprompt.
5. I've been testing it against Tails 2.0beta. It used to work against
1.x also, but I might have broken that when I migrated to udisks2.
Haven't got around to checking it since.
Andrew.
