Problem: Linux
For starters, please use wget to download archive from UCL and then answer the following questions:
A. Go back to your home directory
B. Make a backup from the entire vlc-master directory, by recursively copying it to a new directory called vlc-backup. Use the -v switch, so cp prints every successfully copied file to the terminal, and redirect the output of cp to a file called vlc-backup.log. Afterwards, delete the original vlc-master directory.
C. Check how many files were copied by using wc on the backup file
D. Have a look at the file permissions of the src/ directory and explain them: Which combination of permissions are usually set for files, and which ones for directories?
E. Create a compressed archive of VLC's backup directory you just created using the zip command. Name the archive vlc-backup.zip.
F. Delete the vlc-backup directory. What is required in order to use the rmdir command for this task?
