In a perfect world.
In a world where we actually live in, everything but Ubuntu 15.10 uses
horribly, horribly outdated UHD, which, as you can imagine, leads to terrible
headaches on my side. Not even accounting for the fact that the package naming,
for historical reasons, isn't always intuitive. You'd install uhd-host, libuhd3
and libuhd-dev.
Cheers,
Marcus
